Sound In Silence

This is the story of the oldest music in the world.

Humans have been making music for tens of thousands of years, and although the music itself is lost to us, occasionally we find the strangest and most beautiful traces of it - from musical stalactites in Spain to flutes made of bird bone and mammoth ivory.

This programme is a journey into forgotten caves, dusty museums and ancient valleys, to discover the surviving fragments of our musical past.

We usually think of life underwater as silent and serene. But in reality, nothing could be further from the truth.
