You can now listen to a song which hasn't been played for 1,000 years

Scientists from the University of Cambridge have managed to piece together a song which hasn't been played in over 1,000 years. It took the team two decades to reconstruct songs from a medieval musical, and they've finally deciphered what it would sound like. The musical was based on Roman philosopher Boethius's magnum opus "The Consolation of Philosophy."
 The original work was written by Boethius in the 6th century during his imprisonment.

 This was shortly before his execution for treason, and is considered to be one of his great masterpieces. The ancient song has remained unplayed and unsung for so many years because of the way it was written.
