I think we have some of those on the forum. :)



That's pretty obscure.

But what about Neanderthal dance music?

You read that article about the artifacts supposedly being rudimentary musical instruments? That had to be 20 years ago...

Amazing. You win.. that IS obscure...

Well, to be honest, I just made that up. Not that I thought the Neanderthal did, or did not, make music; it was just something that came to mind as a probably little known area of anthropology. But I wasn't aware of any research into it until just now, when I did a web search. I got the idea from just thinking about what sort of obscure music I was aware of, but then I figured even Carlo Gesualdo would be known to serious students of music. So I just extrapolated from there.

So, I have to give Cozzicon the nod on that one.

Well- don't be too impressed.

Women hate me and children are scared of me. I am however really smart- but that only helps in my profession.

I was a music performance major BTW. And I'm Italian... so Carlo Gesualdo would have been easy :)

Oh.. Seems there is a lot of internet presence for Neanderthal music:

Facing ancient music

You too, eh? :D Okay, maybe women don't hate me too much. And I've had kids think I was Santa Claus -- yes, really. And I'd like to get back to a profession where my smarts were doing some good. Oh, and I'm German. Didn't go to college.

Everything I found re. Neanderthal music was about that 1 bone flute. Oh, one site mentioned phalange flutes generally. Hmm, makes me think of Danse Macabre.
