Prehistoric music

The oldest musical instruments found date back 40,000 years. So the question is, what is actually the oldest craft? Jakub Žid brought them back to life with his characteristic humor—his repertoire includes works such as Hu-ha, Mammoths March to New Siberia, Raven Feather, and many others, created directly during the performance. It is a must at any celebration of the anniversary of the massacre of any tribe, a good hunt, and, in Neolithic times, a good harvest – it can be held on any day, as there is always something to celebrate during that period. Welcoming spring, summer, autumn, winter, solstice, rituals for birth, initiation into the tribe, marriage, war, peace, funeral.
