This is one of a series in which each book contains flaps and fold-outs, and is accompanied by a sheet of reusable stickers. Examining the development of music from the invention of the earliest musical instruments to new sounds and 20th-century innovations, this book covers wind, percussion and string instruments, with chapters on the way music is used to evoke feelings and moods. This history of music is discussed alongside its part in myth and religion through the ages.
