When the music started? This question leads Ramón Andrés from the original encounter of man with sound to the work of contemporary composers from China and Mesopotamia, through India, Egypt, Greece and Rome to the modern West, through magic, medicine, mathematics and astronomy. The world in the ear is a remarkably documented study and an intense tour of an art that, century after century, has emerged as an irreplaceable source of knowledge and delight.
