Daphne Oram documentary - Wee Have Also Sound-Houses Play to 3:11.
"We have also sound-houses, where we practise and demonstrate all sounds and their generation.
We have harmony which you have not, of quartersounds and lesser slides of sounds.
Divers instruments of music likewise to you unknown, some sweeter than any you have; with bells and rings that are dainty and sweet.
We have certain helps which, set to the ear, do further the hearing greatly; we have also divers strange and artificial echoes, reflecting the voice many times, and, as it were, tossing it; and some that give back the voice louder than it came, some shriller and some deeper; yea, some rendering the voice, differing in the letters or articulate sound from that they receive.
We have all means to convey sounds in trunks and pipes, in strange lines and distances."http://oregonstate.edu/instruct/phl302/texts/bacon/atlantis.html
