mcgillianaireThe World's Oldest Human Recording
Fits & Giggles
A 10 second clip of a woman singing a French folk song has been played for the first time in 150 years. The recording of "Au Clair de la Lune", recorded in 1860, is thought to be the oldest known recorded human voice. It made extra headlines on the day it originally made the news when the reader presenting the bulletin on BBC Radio 4 lost control and got the giggles after playing a clip of the recording.
