	Throughout the ages music has soothed the spirit, inspired the people and accompanied armies to victory.It is an integral element in all types of rituals, festivals and celebrations from the most personal domestic scenes to the splendour of the temple or the grandeur of the king's court. This catalogue brings to life the sounds and context of music in the ancient world. Very little is actually known about the notes played, the scales that instruments were tuned to, or the rythm and beat that kept the pace. However, through this catalogue and exhibition, a great deal of information from scholars around the globe has been compiled to present the most comprehensive look at Music in the Ancient World.
