Da Vinci played several instruments, including the lira da braccio which is a type of lyre often used by Italian poet-musicians to accompany their poetry recitations.
It was his interest in acoustics that allowed Leonardo to invent new instruments, and improve upon existing ones. Da Vinci knew that the bell can produce different sounds in different regions, and by dampening other regions with the lever heads, the bell can produce multiple different pitches.
Da Vinci connected the decay of sound through space to his findings of diminishing perspective optics, on which he based much of his artwork. To figure that out, we need to figure out which organism was first able to hear. The first organisms to be able to hear things were probably the bony fishes , which appeared on this planet about million years ago.
So what were these fish hearing? What sounds did these early labyrinth organs pick up? Mostly vibrations that coursed through their bodies as they moved through the water or, in later cases, as they walked along muddy banks. Fast forward a whole lot of time, and we get to humans. Phonautographs transcribe sound waves into a line that is drawn on paper or glass.
The history of the earliest origins of recorded sound technology is being rewritten! While Edison's story is often told, history books mention Scott's name merely in passing.
But because it lacked the ability to "playback" its recordings, there was no proof that it actually made interpretable sound recordings. Using digital technologies, they proved Scott's recordings could be understood upon playback.
