    EN: Swan-neck lyre, improvisation.
    This lyre is an interpretation of the iconography of the The sarcophagus of Aghia Triada
    (Heraklion Archaeological Museum) - We know nothing about the music of the Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations but
    the music was probably associated with religious rites.
    Swan-shaped lyres are present in the world of Greek and Egyptian antiquity.
    For more details see Leopold Vorreiter's publication about these lyres: www.jstor.org/stable/841575

    Maybe we’ll finally discover the Minoan “Rosetta Stone” and discover several songs written down!

    Beautiful. My humble recommendation: put together longer chunks of stuff like this and your channel could explode. I would love, love to have stuff like this on repeat, for work, dining. Or for forbidden initiation into Eleusinian mysteries!!!

      Hello, thank you !
      I plan on doing more stuff next year, I am just waiting for my new instruments and doing more research haha. Eventually it will come.
      Cheers ! 🎵 🎶 (Edit: if you want a little more Minoan lyre I have an album called palatial nights, you might find it in streaming platforms)

    There is a real authenticity about your playing in your modal tuning ... may well resemble something quite ancient. I have wondered often about what the Minoans heard. I think you have it. ... Bravo! Definitely will subscribing! ... Υπάρχει μια πραγματική αυθεντικότητα σχετικά με το να παίζετε στο modal tuning σας φαίνεται να μοιάζει με κάτι αρκετά αρχαίο. Πολλές φορές έχω αναρωτηθεί τι άκουσαν οι Μινωίτες. Νομίζω ότι το έχεις. ... Καλό αγόρι! Σίγουρα θα εγγραφείτε!

      Hello. I think I was using a Turkish mode. Based on the modern Phrygian with a small modification. Something like E F G# A B C D should do the trick 😎

    Very nice. The seikolos epitaph melody at the begining sounds like it's being played using an other tuning system, right ?

      Yes. The very first notes of the epitaph are played. But the epitaph melody is indeed in another mode

      Hello ! It's just improvisation and exploration of the instrument. I try to use as many different techniques as possible. I like watching ancient iconographies but also modern day ethnic lyre players (mostly from modern Africa where lyre traditions seem to be well preserved.)
      So I did not really "learn" this technique, it's more like discovering or rediscovering different techniques ;)
