Ancient Greek Music - “First Delphic Hymn to Apollo“
This is my 1st (somewhat shakey!) attempt at playing on replica lyre, the famous “First Delphic Hymn to Apollo“ - a precious surviving fragment of music, which is an amazing legacy from the mostly lost musical culture of ancient Greece! In this upload, I attempted to use ancient Greek cyclical tuning to TRY and achieve “Just Tuning“...with not very good results! I couldn’t get the 3rds to sound “right“ :o(
There are two Delphic Hymns that have been discovered, and they were dedicated to the god Apollo. Unlike the famous “Song of Seikilos“ (the first COMPLETE piece of music that has been so far found to have survived from antiquity), the two Delphic Hymns have sadly not survived in their complete form. However, they do survive in substantial just a tantilizing taste of the glory of the tragically lost, magnificant musical culture of ancient Greece!
The two Delphic Hymns are dated BC and 128 BC. My rendition
