One time on the campus of the University of Liverpool Garstang was walking with a music professor. Garstang asked the music professor if he knew the musical note of the shofar that the ancient Israelites used in their seige against Jericho. The music professor admitted that he did not. Garstang replied: "B flat." Alan Millard told me a funny (if you like puns) joke that Garstang liked to tell.

Combined with Braun's book on music in ancient Israel, this book will be indispensables for teaching music in the ancient world. Ben’s dissertation was called Do You Hear What I Hear?
