World's oldest instruments discovered

Researchers have unearthed what they believe to be the oldest musical instruments ever found, the BBC has reported.
Flutes made from bird bone and mammoth ivory discovered in the Geissenkloesterle cave in southern Germany have been confirmed as between 42,000 and 43,000 years old, thanks to carbon dating technology.
"These results are consistent with a hypothesis we made several years ago that the Danube River was a key corridor for the movement of humans and technological innovations into central Europe between 40,000-45,000 years ago," said Prof Tom Hingham from Oxford University, who led the team of researchers.
"Geissenkloesterle is one of several caves in the region that has produced important examples of personal ornaments, figurative art, mythical imagery and musical instruments."
Experts reckon the flutes may have been used for recreation or religious rituals.

The most guitars re-strung in 1 hour is 30, achieved by Glenn Haworth at Haworth's Shellharbour Music Centre, Albion Park Rail, Australia, on 15 March 2009.

Glenn changed a total of 183 strings - 30 complete guitars and half of a 31st.

Matt Bellamy of the band Muse, smashed 140 guitars during the 'Origin of Symmetry' tour in 2001.

The largest playable guitar in the world is 13.29 m (43 ft 7.5 in) tall, 5.01 m. (16 ft 5.5 in) wide and weighs 907 kg (2,000 lb). Modelled on a 1967 Gibson Flying V and built to a scale of 1:12, it was made by students from Conroe Independent School District Academy of Science and Technology, Conroe, Texas, USA at a cost of US$3,000 (£1,975). With construction beginning in October 1999, the instrument was finally played at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion on 6 June 2000 with the opening chord of 'Hard Day's Night'.

The longest sustained note on a wind or brass instrument is 1 min 13.38 sec on a clarinet by Philip Palmer (UK) at Coppice Performing Arts School, Wolverhampton, UK, on 27 November 2006.

His first attempt was measured at 1.16 but there was a blip in volume around the minute mark, so his second attempt was decreed the successful one.

primul sistem PA? RG Jones, partnerii nostri din Anglia!

Ronald Geoffrey Jones was born in Caerphilly in South Wales. From an early age he loved designing and building gadgets. Entirely self-taught, he was equally skilled at carpentry and metalwork and was very quickly able to construct a power amplifier and other pieces of electronic equipment.

Known as Geoff or RG, his first job on leaving school was for a company called Milton. He became a salesman for the company and from a caravan, in which he also lived, he sold his wares in town markets all around Wales. Getting himself heard above the other market traders was hard work and he soon began to turn his mind again to electronically amplified sound. Totally undaunted by his lack of training in electronics, he procured all the necessary components and had soon assembled a system. Two large horn loudspeakers, the flares constructed entirely by him out of bits of timber, were mounted on top of the car which towed his caravan. Inside, he installed a microphone connected to an amplifier powered by four twelve volt batteries and a rotary (48V to 230V) convertor. It worked! The young RG Jones was now able to advertise himself effortlessly to the crowds giving him a distinct advantage over the other retailers. Such was the success of his enterprise that his employers asked him to build a further fifteen more systems to equip the rest of the Milton force. So by the tender age of just eighteen, the same year Queen Elizabeth II was born, with the BBC just barely formed and Stalin just in power, the young RG Jones went into business for himself!
