MUSIC FROM ANTIQUITY - ANCIENT GREEK MELODY!
Description: For all updates on the progress of my first CD album, "KING DAVID'S LYRE; ECHOES OF ANCIENT ISRAEL", please visit my Myspace website :
http://www.myspace.com/jubalslyre
A short rendition of one of the precious few fragments of surviving ancient Greek music! This haunting, almost dream-like fragment of melody was found on papyrus & is catalogued as "Anonymous, Bellermann 97-104". It is played here, on a lyre closely resembling the ancient Greek Kithara; the larger wooden lyre favoured by the professional musicians of ancient Greece(the lyre is in fact, a replica of a Jewish Temple lyre, depicted on a Jewish coin from 135CE - it is almost identical to the Kithara).
I heard this lovely melody for the first time, on the CD "Musique de la Grece Antique"(track 13).
It is in the ancient Greek "Hypolydian" mode; the equivalent intervals as heard on the scale from F-F on the white notes of the piano. The augmented 4th in this mode to me, creates the dreamy quality of the sound of this piece.
Due to a misinterpretation of the Latin texts of Boethius, mediaeval modes were given the wrong Greek names! For the CORRECT names of the ORIGINAL ancient Greek modes, see:
http://www.harmonics.com/lucy/lsd/corrections.html
For what Plato & Aristotle themselves had this to say about these ancient musical modes, please see this fascinating link:

What a terrible tragedy, that of all the amazing cultures of ancient civilizations, so few fragments of their original melodies and music from antiquity have been preserved...
