Meditations of Polyhymnia - track 1 from my album, Kithara of the Golden Age . The kithara was the highly advanced, large wooden lyre favoured by only the true professional musicians of ancient Greece, which reached its pinnacle of perfection during the “Golden Age” of Classical Antiquity, circa 5th century BCE. • Both this album and my earlier release , The Ancient Greek Kithara of Classical Antiquity features the wonderfully recreated Kithara of the Golden Age of Classical Greece, complete with its reconstructed vibrato mechanism - hand-made in modern Greece by Luthieros: • http://en.luthieros.com • Polyhymnia (Πολύμνια) was in ancient Greek mythology the Muse of sacred poetry, sacred hymn, dance, and eloquence as well as agriculture and pantomime. Her name name comes from the Greek words poly meaning many and hymnos , which means praise . She is depicted as very serious, pensive and meditative, and often holding a finger to her mouth, dressed in a long cloak and veil and resting her elbow on a pillar. Polyhymnia is also sometimes credited as being the Muse of geometry and meditation. • This piece, therefore is fittingly composed in the intensively introspective ancient Greek Dorian Mode (the equivalent intervals as E-E on the white notes of the piano and misnamed the 'Phrygian' mode in the Middle Ages). This uniquely introspective characteristic of the ancient Greek Dorian Mode is further enhanced by the use the pure, focussed musical intervals tuned in authentic just intonation... • Kithara of the Golden Age is out now, on all major digital music stores and steaming sites, including iTunes, Apple Music, Amazon, Spotify, Google Play, CD Baby and Bandcamp. • For a never ending 'musical magic carpet ride' to the ancient world, with a new video published every Sunday at 22.30 GMT, please subscribe Here: • http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c... • http://www.ancientlyre.com/ • / beautifullyre • / ancientlyre • http://www.cdbaby.com/Artist/MichaelLevy • https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/mi...
