Now this is just plain cool – a project melding science and modern computer technology to digitally reconstruct the sound of ancient instruments known only from historical references. The result is a “concert” in which you can hear these instruments being “played” by a computer program.
Here's one sample of an instrument called an epigonion (and I have no idea how to pronounce that). But you really, really should go read about what these folks did. On their site you'll find many more samples.
