http://www.facebook.com/AcousticLabs.Music - My mother has been playing this on piano and I thought I'd give it a shot. And no, neither of us are quite sure how to pronounce "Gymnopedie".

Tuning: C#F#A#C#G#C# - Capo the second fret.

Recorded in Logic. Filmed on a Canon 7D.

  • The Gymnopaedia, in ancient Sparta, was a yearly celebration during which naked youths displayed their athletic and martial skills through the medium of war dancing.The custom was introduced in 668 B.C. concurrently with the introduction of naked athletics, oiling the body for exercise so as to highlight its beauty.Gymnopaedia derives from the ancient Greek Γυμνοπαιδίαι. The word Gymnopaedia is composed of γυμνός (gymnos -"naked" or"unarmed")and παίς (pais-"child, youth") or παίζω (paizo-"play")

  • A gloriously unique rendition of an already masterful piece of music. You have my sincerest thanks for bringing these sounds to life.
