cultures.• Human voice is the “first” instrument.• Singing, humming, clicking, whistling, yawning

GOLIARDS
• Goliards are roaming poet-musician priests.• Roamed the countryside singing and dancing.• Often poked fun at church traditions…• "Priests and clerks dance in the choir dressed as women.
They eat black pudding at the altar itself, while the celebrant is saying Mass. They play dice on the altar. They incense with stinking smoke from the soles of old shoes. They run and leap throughout the church, without shame. Finally they drive about the town in shabby carriages and carts, and rouse the laughter of their fellows and the bystanders in infamous performances, with indecent gestures and with scurrilous and unchaste words."
