Hail Savae! I will live and die an unconverted Greco-Roman, I have heard your Apologists, Read your Scriptures and I declare myself Pagan...But I will buy the CD, such concepts are too rare! :-) Great Job!
Hearing your album "Ancient Echoes" was one of the most inspirational experiences I have ever had - it was after hearing this incredible music, that I decided to truly get back to my Levite roots & teach myself the Kinnor Lyre! I am now in the process of planning to make my own album of solo Kinnor Lyre music, (as heard on my Youtube Channel). Do you have any hints on how I can achieve this goal, and how I can go about finding a suitable company to distribute the finished CD? Thanks!
It should appeal to all of them! I am thinking of calling my album "King David's Lyre; Echoes of Ancient Israel". I am planning to do arrangements for solo Kinnor Lyre, of an improvisation on an ancient Egyptian scale ("The music of Moses"), a selection of traditional Shabbat melodies, traditional Hebrew songs, and arrangements for solo lyre, of traditional Jewish Klezmer melodies...
It helps to remember that there are two levels of synagogue chant: the "primitive chants" (like the version of Psalm 114 you sang on A.E.), which are in some cases even older than the Christian era; and the "tropes" which from all evidence came in during the Middle Ages. There were also two levels of liturgy anciently: the folk (in the synagogue) and the classical (in the Temple). This accounts for the similarities and differences between the primitive synagogue chants and SHV's.
Most impressive footage! I got to go to a very few of the featured places when I visited Jerusalem in January 2008.
Point of order: The Jewish communities were NOT isolated for hundreds of years, either genetically or culturally. It is now understood that the Islamic Great Tradition is the source of the Jewish "tropes", which went all over the Middle East, North Africa and even Europe. Jewish migrations played a great role in this influence.
thank you for the information on the tropes. We have got to get back to our research for the upcoming project on Yeshua and will take this into account.

What audience do you envision for this? Christians? Jews? Ancient Music buffs? That would help define possible recording companies.
