My musical mission is to literally "carry on where the ancients left off" in continuing to create new music, for the recreated ancient lyres & kithara of antiquity, using the distinctive expressive qualities of the ancient musical modes, heard in the pure focus of authentic, ancient just intonation.
This channel is my essential vehicle for this 'musical adventure in time travel' - it is entirely thanks to the video comments & suggestions of you, my much valued subscribers, that my new music has been continually forged, refined and ultimately released on my many albums, available from all the usual digital music platforms, painstakingly indepenently produced since 2008.
Many thanks! Any creator can feature my music in their own videos, but as all my music is copyright registered with RU-vid, ads will be automatically generated, from which I eventually gain a few pennies in 'royalties'. If you could please credit my music with a link to my website & Spotify Artist Profile, this would be invaluable - Many thanks!
Michael, you are one of the most talented musicians of our time and I really hope that you see my question from one of your biggest fans. I'm a guitar player who is inspired by faith and historical relevance to pick up the lyre. I'd like to play the Davidic psalms as you have. However I cannot afford the Lyre of Har Megiddo. So I decided I'll settle on a kinnor. On a tight budget, like as tight as possible. Where can I find a kinnor on which I can play ancient music and the Davidic psalms? May Peace be upon you (rockstar! ;) Michael Levy. I'm a huge fan.
🎶“Anu, Ra, Anu - Anu, Ra, Anu- Ra, Ra- Anu, Anu…..” Those were the words when I wrote it anyways. It was a jam then 😌 jus ppl chanting and jumping and cats everywhere 😮💨
This is interesting becose Prophet and King David has Never lived in israel 1 state who has been establish by fools when they chose to atack slander Prophet Solomon and His Family and invade thé Hebrews from thé Sourh thé state of Judah and their capital Jérusalem. ))That is why thé original israel 1 state has been completly destroyed and All injust jews there have been killed around year 720 before Prophet Jesus Christ the Real Messiah.
Your head is turned upside down brother. This harp is African, the land of the first men and of civilization. That’s where music was developed and all other arts and sciences. Of course the Egyptians who were Africans would share the same similarities with their fellow Africans. Mesopotamia is a child…
Glad you enjoyed the time travel experience! To hear an entire album featuring this very same wonderfully recreated ancient Greek tortoise shell lyre, check out my release, "Ancient Greek Magic": open.spotify.com/album/48YR4xbosLfvTb5h9axRbJ?si=S08BS6p6S52hEBohY5Jb0w
Here is the book containing all the so far discovered fragments of notated ancient Greek music:: books.google.co.uk/books/about/Documents_of_Ancient_Greek_Music.html?id=jVud8Fz6wTMC&redir_esc=y
Thank you! This very idea of an 'alternate reality' in which it was the lyre, not the guitar, which developed into popular music of our present century, which in part inspired my 2017 album, "Ascension of the Lyre", which aimed to demonstrate how the lyre could have been ascended into an instrument fit for our far flung future amongst the stars: open.spotify.com/album/3e9HjibzZSEjBatbzvzE4L?si=FNf1uayXTVGIbB0S3qCm6Q
According to Wikipedia: "The psalms were written from the time of the Israelite conquest of Canaan to the post-exilic period and the book was probably compiled and edited into its present form during the post-exilic period in the 5th century BC." - written at least 3000 years ago and compiled about 2,500 years ago.
"Fascinating, Captain: it appears that, with the rather crude electronics of early 21st century Earth, someone has managed to approximate the subtleties of a Vulcan harp..." ;-)
LOL! I actually can, now I've got this permanently installed lyre pickup...must also experiment to hear what hot sauce my Boss Super Overdrive Pedal can add to the mix!!
@ihidaya888 - Fascinating! Talk about Vulcan 'Mind Meld' - I literally was looking at the Boss AW-3 Dynamic Wah pedal on for the time on eBay today!! 😮
