Thread Name: Ancient Egyptian music - where is it
Subject: RE: Ancient Egyptian music - where is it
I'll do some checking with my brother, Donuel. I have seen sistrums at the Egyptian Museum in San Jose, CA. I also have sheet music from the 1930's when the the "Last prayer of Akhnaton (I breathe the Sweet Breath)" was put to music. The words were translated by Dr. Alan Gardiner, originally by Amenophis IV, Pharoah of Egypt, 1358 B.C.
