I'm not a big fan of Bruce Prescott, but one his posts from this morning interested me. Turns out the key to the great acoustics at the ancient Greek theater at Epidaurus is its limestone construction.
How did the ancients wind up with such great acoustics in the first place? Turns out it was probably by accident. All later attempts to recreate them elsewhere failed for one reason or another.
