"This insightful appreciation of musical instruments features more than one hundred
extraordinary pieces from the Metropolitan Museum's collection. Whether created to
entertain a royal court, provide personal solace, or aid in rites and rituals, these
instruments fully demonstrate music's universal resonance and the ingenuity various
cultures have deployed for musical expression. The results are astoundingly diverse:
from Bronze Age cymbals and sistra to violins made by Stradivari, monumental slit
drums from Oceania, and iconic twentieth-century American guitars. Stunning new photographs
and a lively text reveal these objects to be works of both musical and visual art,
as well as marvels of technology and masterpieces of design. Depictions of instruments
and music making--paintings, statues, and pottery--further illuminate the narrative,
providing a vivid counterpoint to these remarkable objects." -- Publisher's description
