A beautifully illustrated exploration of the strangest areas of music from around the world, from the author of the critically acclaimed bestsellers The Phantom Atlas, The Madman's Library, and The Devil's Atlas. Join author Edward Brooke-Hitching on a backstage tour of the most surprising and eccentric stories in the history of music. From the musical secrets of prehistoric monuments to the future of compositions by artificial intelligence, The Madman's Orchestra uncovers the most curious tales, madcap musicians, and unusual instruments lost in time. In these pages, discover answers to questions like:
- What does the song of a black hole sound like?
- Which composition requires four helicopters and a string quartet with strong stomachs to play it correctly?
- When should you feed your piano hay?
- What does the "cat organ" sound like, and is it any more pleasing to the ear than the "hog harmonium"?
- Music lovers
- History buffs
- Anyone interested in bizarre oddities, obscure cultural events, and the macabre
