Music of the Ancient Greek Olympia...

"Procession of the Olympians" (Composition for Replica Lyre in the Ancient Greek Lydian Mode) - a clip of track 4 from my album, "The Ancient Greek Modes"...

The concept of this album, is to restore the sound of each of the 7 original Ancient Greek Modes used in Antiquity (as described in the writings of Plato & Aristotle some 2400 years ago), in 7 original compositions, arranged for solo Ancient Greek Kithara-style repllca lyre...

There is so much more possibility in that instrument than there seems to be. How many strings does it have? Certainly not enough to create that much melody and depth. And yet you make it happen. Really, this is beautiful.

@L00kng Glad you have enjoyed hearing this "Musical Adventure in Time Travel"! The lyre I play has only 10 strings, but the combination of both plectrum-plucked tones & finger-plucked tones makes this incredible instrument sound like one is playing a guitar & a harp...simultaneously! I base my lyre-playing techniques on those still practiced today in Africa (where the the lyre has been played until the present day!).

@CarFox6 I think you're mistaking 'massive thunder thighs' for muscle. I'm pretty sure the majority of ancient Greeks were quite fit. I'm also pretty sure that some of those figures were exaggerations of the the 'perfect' male body....Unless you you were joking, and in that case....

ya, my brothers of the past started mma aswell... i love it

Jeez, did every ancient Greek person have massive thunder thighs?

@ColumbusIsraelites ORLY? So, people hailing from a city in Peloponnese were actually from a country far to the southwest that wasn't populated until 1030 years later? And the Israelites trained their sons to be warriors from the day they were born? And young Israelite men had to kill a man in battle before he would be considered a man himself? Wow, this is sure news to me. Where does it say that in the Torah?

[spyrosw9]

@ColumbusIsraelites yeah i did.did you know that earth is rectangular,that godzilla actually exists,that hitler actually helped humankind and that i am superman?
