Dance of the Spartans - Ancient Greek Music

- Music by Farya Faraji, based on melodic folk motifs from Greece. I was inspired to write an immersive piece of music as close as possible to historical practices of Ancient Greece-please keep in mind that this isn’t meant to be entirely historically accurate music from Ancient Greece, although it’s closer to realistic compared to some of my more creative pieces. The instruments are all from the soundscape of Ancient Greece: the aulos, the lyre, and a mantoura-the latter is a simple reed instrument from Crete, and such instruments are attested in Ancient Greece. I based this on motifs found across Crete, the Cyclades and Thrace, since they are the modern day regions that still use such reed instruments like in Ancient Greece, and therefore their sound is our best bet, in my opinion, at reverse-engineering the most probable usage of these instruments throughout the Greek world, given that they were ubiquitous throughout Greece back then. The melody is possible given what we know of the historical practice, with the usage of the Phrygian mode (what we call today the Dorian mode), although it’s not certain how folk melodies for dances were built, and whether they were ornamented in such a way especially before the Roman era, were ornamentation becomes more increasingly used. Most of the creative aspect on my part lies in two aspects: the strumming of the lyre to provide a constant drone constituted of the tonic and it’s lower perfect fourth-strumming was a major part of lyre playing in Greece, however it seemed to have been melodic strumming. The sort of drone strumming I added to support the melody is entirely speculative, however it is based on common practice of heterophonic traditions of today, like in modern Greek traditional music, where an instrument will strum the tonic repeatedly as a steady drone. While this practice isn’t directly attested in Ancient Greek music, I consider it compatible with the heterophonic nature of this tradition, whose monophonic aspect is often exagerated.
A far more creative and less plausible aspect however is the usage of harmony-I switched the drone to the subtonic in moments of cadence, and also added a lower perfect fourth to the main drone. While far more creative in this aspect, the research of some specialists like Stefen Hagel suggests a far more prevalent use of harmony than usually believed. If harmony were to exist within the largely heterophonic and melodic framework of Ancient Greek music, I believe it would have come in the form the absolute simplest forms such as those found in the Cyclades or Thrace on which I based the harmonic aspects of this piece, where the lower perfect fourth sounded in unison with the tonic as well as cadence-ornamenting subtonic use is prevalent. Once again, the harmony I’ve included as well as the drone-strumming are not meant to indicate my belief of their presence in Ancient Greek music, but are rather my way of showing that there would have been different compositional techniques accompanying the melody beyond the pure monophony that we are often told Ancient Greek music functionned with-strumming of the tonic to produce a drone and very simple harmony may have well constituted the palette of this tradition, which I tried conveying here.

I absolutely adore your commitment to history. I’ve always wanted to understand how things were, felt, sounded, looked like, etc., and even though it isn’t truly accurate, I respect and appreciate the amount of effort you put in to make these masterpieces. Another banger!

I am surprised by the name, since this is considered as typical Cretan music and not associated with the Peloponnese at all, at least today. Your interpretation and composition is awesome. Amazing!
The instruments you hear in this composition were once used all across Greece 2500 years ago. I used Cretan, Cycladic and Thracian traditions that still use these instruments to get some idea of how Ancient Greeks across the Greek world would have used them. It seemed wiser to me to simulate Peleponesian use of reed instruments like the mantouras by using extant tradition rather than using only my creativity. I think we associate the use of these reed instruments with specific regions of Greece like Thrace and Crete today, but they were universal throughout Ancient Greece back then, and we know Spartans used them too :)
Totally agree that the two regions don't share a whole lot musically today but don't forget that the Dorians migrated to the Peloponnese and Crete during the Mycenaean period. Sparta and Crete shared the Doric dialect and you can look up Lato, close to Agios Nikolaos, as an example of one of their colonies on Crete.
@@eho6380 I used recordings from Ancient Greek reconstructionists. My guess is you find this too different from the recordings of Ancient Greek music available on RUclips right now.
Most performances on RUclips are of “higher class” musicians like Mesomedes, often very slow, and use principally the lyre and little percussive drives. Little effort yet has been in done in trying to approximate what a folk dance would have sounded like, which is what I’m doing: providing an approximation of a type of Ancient Greek performance that there are very little if no recordings of at all.
In other words, it would be like only having heard a specific type of American music, say Black Gospel, and then rejecting other forms of American music like country as being “quite off from American music”. Comparing the Delphic hymns or Mesomedes’ pieces, which is what all reconstructions on RUclips are, to an approximation of a folk dance, and especially believing them to be representative of the entirety of Ancient Greek music misses the mark in that regard. I’d invite you to read my pinned comment to get an idea of the research and historical practices involved in this.
Probably not a valid point from me but they were both ethnically Dorian, in ancient times the legendary Lycurgus supposedly borrowed pieces of the culture from Crete among others. Again, pseudo hypothesis from someone who’d love to accept this as Laconic.

thought so too, rather a festive song/dance song. Love

@@josephbuckley7240 :) a joyous one, it sounds rather cultivated, a dance and feast of rather nobel character - as much as men are able to live up to that - hahah :P Im thinking eg of bonopos dressed up and really behaving and moving humanlike :D Love
This sounds historically real. Ancient Greece was colorful, full of rich painted temples, gorgeous clothing, intricate patterns, wild and beautiful and powerful and human.

Great music. As a person with Armenian roots, I can say that this evokes certain feelings of nostalgia for the times when people lived on these lands and had such a culture. Thanks to national food, music and architecture, we can remember the very history of mankind through the grains of the culture of these people. With love from Russia!

@@OnlyScienceRules
Hollywood ??? hahahahaha
Mas que palhaçada da sua parte, quem usa base de filmes é você, a cultura helênica está exposta através das obras primárias, há mais de mil anos atrás já haviam livros dos poetas e filósofos que exaltam a tribo dórica.
Los Helenos fueron un pueblo que nos dejó un gran legado, admirables por su naturaleza curiosa que los llevó a buscar de todo, teniendo desde pueblos guerreros y en extremo apegados a las leyes y el honor como los Laecedemonios/Espartanos, pueblos navegantes y conquistadores como los Foceos, hasta estados gobernados bajo filósofos como Tarento alguna vez y hasta Atenas bajo Pericles y Cremonides, grandes conquistadores como Dionisio I de Siracusa con sus ingenios para conquistar como el Gastrafetes (La primera ballesta en occidente), Alejandro Magno con la falange de su padre con la que conquistó el mundo, Pirro de Epiro con su valor y respeto a sus enemigos y no solo eso, sino también su ingenio, etcétera, nos dejó hasta a Hipócrates de Cos, el padre de la medicina, Tales de Mileto, el que es tenido por Aristóteles por el primer Filósofo siendo seguido por otros Jonios y después otros Helenos, aportes en las matemáticas bajo Pitágoras que influenciaron bastante a Platón en sus escritos y posteriormente al resto del mundo, también los Helenos nos dejaron hasta el primer Historiador que fue Heródoto, fueron tales sus formas que influenciaron en gran medida tanto a Cartagineses como Romanos, lo que serían los grandes poderes del Mediterráneo junto a en un principio Etruscos y la mayor parte de pueblos Itálicos e incluso en gran medida Ibéricos en la costa, los Helenos fueron grandes exploradores con hombres como Escilax y otros más que llegaron hasta Britania, simplemente maravillosos los Helenos.

Great stuff! Love ancient Greek music
This would be great for a movie about Ancient Greece that tried to aim for accuracy
Sadly, nonexistent.
It's amazing.. And it's quite similar to native Canaanite Levantine music
And anatolian music
The amount of Hellenic heritage gets downplayed a lot in that region. The influence of the Hellenistic kingdoms and the very Greek Byzantine/Eastern Roman Empire on Lebanon and Palestine was insanely strong. Not only did the Orthodox and Eastern Catholic populations call themselves "Roman" (as the Greeks did until the independence movement which was largely supported by philhellenic westerners who tended to have a very low opinion of the ERE) and were considered Greeks by western ethnographers into the 1800s, but a blood protein marker associated with Ancient Macedonians has quite common among Levantine Christians
This shit makes me wanna crip walk through Greece
whats good my nikephoros
As a Greek/Cretan im feelng lucky to found this channel.
Farya Faraji thank you for your time and the stuff.
this is absolutely insane.. where has this is guy been all my life
This and your Thermopylae symphony have taught me the beauty of Greek music.
As someone from the Balkans that knows a lot about our folk dances, I must say that you have hit the jackpot with this one. You could literally put this song over the Bulgarian “Trite puti” folk dance and you wouldn’t even notice that it’s not the original folklor song. This is definitely music that our Balkan ancestors would’ve danced to :)
Pretty cool music. I look forward to listening to it when I drive to and from work like with your other songs.
Really cool and very appreciated that you play a part in keeping these cultures alive in your own special way.
Farya just dropped another banger!
You are a hidden gem. How have you not received any contracts to write soundtracks for TV shows, films, and videogames?

Love the music unfortunately while I was visiting Greece I didn’t have the opportunity to hear this great music.
Thank you ❤
This makes me want to lead my band of three hundred Spartans against a ten thousand strong Persian force...This is beyond epic. I'm a huge fan of Ancient Greece and this is the closest we can get to experiencing what it was like. Thank you!
Tens of thousands... hundreds of thousands...
@@DivineHellas Lol that's an exaggeration
@@DivineHellas at most it was tens of thousands, i think it was between 40 - 75 thousand Persians, not literal hundreds of thousands.
And the Greek force that was assembled for Thermopylae was around 7,000 troops, so yeah the whole 300 spartans story is a myth.
Let me explain, there was 300 spartans and Leonidas, yes, but there was around 6,700 other Greeks there with them.
Sparta was just propaganda in the shape of a country.
@@DemonicAthen Only 300 Spartans and ~1400 other Greeks fought in the battle of Thermopylae. Yes, there were initially ~7,000 Greeks but most were dismissed to fight other battles in Salamis, Mycale, and Plataea.

My fav song from all of faryas songs
Great job as always!
Farya, if you ever are so inclined to do so, I highly encourage any composition from you of the music from Magna Graecia, the land of my ancestors. I would love to hear either a reconstruction or hear your interpretation of the music of those Hellenized Near Eastern peoples that settled in Southern Italy. (Especially Calabria where my family comes from). We use an ancient drum known in the various dialects as a “tamburreddhu” or tamburello in Italian, that came from North Africa and/or Near East. It hasn’t changed form in millennia and it’s still integral to the music there today.
Farya is literally keeping ancient culture alive, especially in Persian and Greek cultures both of which have been suppressed and Islamized, I’m Syrian and will fight to keep this culture alive ♥️
greeks were never islamized, more like christianized if anything
@@badpasters Turkey was.
This might actually be one of the best songs I’ve ever heard! Or at least one of the best instrumentals!

As the Spartans were so often described as as "the most musical and most warlike of peoples", I'm sure the ancient citizens of the Peloponnese would find this an absolute jam.

Very nice my friend
98% of my country's land is in the Asian continent and called Anatolia. Most Turks do not know the meaning of the word Anatolia... Anatolia means east in Greek. The region that constitutes the east of the ancient Greek lands and contains the richest culture in the world. Historical artifacts are found everywhere you dig. My ancestors came to these lands 1000 years ago and Greeks lived in this region. We were slanted when we came to these lands, but in the process, we interacted with these people culturally and genetically in such a way that I call myself Anatolian, not Turkish. The community I find most similar to myself in the world is the Greeks. Meanwhile, the Turks were a nomadic society and did not engage in agriculture much. When they came to Anatolia, they learned many dishes from the local people living in these lands. Most of the dishes that are currently referred to as Turkish food were actually learned after coming here.
Invading/conquering armies, such as the Turks were never enough in numbers to flip the genetic pool in Anatolia, Greece and most of the Balkans. Genetics could be a numbers game.. You see, genetically Turkey is 1/3 Greek, 1/3 Armenian and 1/3 Kurdish and 8-10% Far Eastern dna such as the Turks (with some pockets of Turkish dna reaching up to 20 %of the population).Take a dna test and find out your true genetic identity.
As ı said genetic is not important. Different languages, cultures etc. interacted with each other and we gradually evolved completely different society as genetic and culture. yes you are right most of the anatolian people are muslimized greeks, kurds and turkic but percentage is not matter. Even if my grandparents %100 turkic but if my mother is kurdish ım %50 turkic.even in one generation percentage is changing %50 and you say me take a DNA test. The past is in the past, we cannot change the bad things that happened, but the Turks had to migrate to these lands to survive. We can learn from the bad events that happened and make an effort to prevent them from happening again. Stay with love.
@@Caferferyogan-sg4tu Oh..but your Erdogan lives in such past- revels it. Has expansionist delusions based on the old Ottoman Empire boundaries.... wants all of the middle east and Balkans.. even renamed the Aegean Sea- TurkoAegean. Threatens the Greeks with casus belli everyday. As for the genocide of 1922, well there was no apology. Invading Cyprus... hmm anything else??? As for your statement:" but the Turks had to migrate to these lands to survive. " With that kind of logic, there are about 3 million Turks in Germany... are they planning to take over Berlin??? The Turks came as conquerors and invaders (rape and pillage) and not some migrants in this region which is packed with indigenous people that have lived in these lands for thousands of years... Get real...
You deserve more, more views and subscribers.. your stuff is good.. Cheers from NYC
Very good bro! Respect to Türkiye 🇹🇷
Çok teşekkürler dostum! Respect from Canada!

Excellent travail de reconstitution, très fidèle, des instruments d'époque et des airs d'espaces géographiques identitiques ou proches, et y'a pas mieux !
Reminds me of some Medieval songs I've heard. Very nice music
