Ancient Greek The Seikilos Epitaph

[armcelt]

Great! Amazing song and beautiful performance! From your ancient neighbour Armenia )).

[Sacatamm]

Εγω δεν αγαπω η αυτη μουσικη! Βλεπω ενα ηλιθιος!!!!!

[nekpides2fw]

This is a great prove that the death could not interrupt the passion of a very beautiful music.

[canatasiay1m4]

The Epitaph of Seikilos is the closest thing there is about ancient Greek music. Great video, great channel. Keep up the great work.

[brummit1]

this is a great video. You definitely made me feel in the glorious Ancient Greek. The importance of music to the Greeks was monumental and yet to find a severe lack of evidence leaves many scientists stumped as to what Greek music actually sounded like.

[jblkwoodify]

By the way, is Seikilos epitaph an epigram or a skolion?

[kzn876x]

@jblkwoodify What is a skolion??

[brummit1]

@kzn876x Skolion derives from skolios, which means crooked. It used to be a drinking song played at parties and stuff. The people used to hold a bottle of wine and then pass it around randomly until everyone had gone, hence the "crooked" order.While a skolion is relatively light in mood, an epigram is not. It is an inscription commemorating the dead. Essentially it is an epitaph. They would often be written in first person and were inscribed on gravestones.

@jblkwoodify la stele di Sicilo serviva molto probabilmente da epitaffio : un bellissimo testamento rivolto all'amata Euterpe

[balger5678]

Great video man! In ancient Greece, music was thought to be able to control people and modes were especially powerful. Well, it still is.

[jblkwoodify]

@balger5678 I think that the Epitaph of Seikilos has safely been placed into the Phrygian mode.

[ratamabataa]

Hi there! I got a question. How did the ancient Greeks develop their music notation? Thanks.

[balger5678]

@ratamabataa They developed with the help of Sumerians.The ancient Greek lyrics are capitalized letters and characters. They represent notes.

[seered456]

The Seikilos' Epitaph is one of the most beautiful hymns I ever heard.

[tjlcyair]

Of all the arts in the ancient world, this the least is known about Ancient Greek music. Nice job!

[jl467]

Very cool video! Music was definitely an essential part of Greek life. I like this. Keep up the great work.

[longhairdeep]

Great video Kostas! Greece was definitely one of the first ancient civilizations to advance their music notation, and this was a great present to the world.
