The Ancient Roman Lyre
This album is the third in a series, the sequel to Echoes of Ancient Rome and Ode to Ancient Rome. Like the first two albums in the series, The Ancient Roman Lyre features original compositions evoking the lost music of ancient Rome. Most fittingly, they are arranged for a modern evocation of ancient lyres dating from the Hellenistic period and are set to authentic ancient modes. We have precious little indeed of the music of ancient Greece, which was ancient Rome’s teacher in so many things. Of the sixty-one sets of manuscripts, fragments and inscriptions listed by Martin L. West in his Documents of Ancient Greek Music (Oxford, 2001), numbers 23-61 in his list date from the Roman period but are classified and studied as Greek music. Of specifically Roman written music beyond these, vocal or instrumental, we have nothing. This distinction between Greek and Roman music for the Roman time period may be artificial but it does have precedent. Years ago I heard the merest fragment of a musical-verbal phrase ascribed to a composer named Flaccus, a phrase featured in the play Hecyra by Terence: TERENCIO, HECYRA 861 (Terence). Versus 861. Hecyra of Terence. Codex Victorianus Laurentianus XXXVIII-24, saec. X This piece may be heard on track 19 of the recording Musique de la Grece Antique by Atrium Musicae de Madrid (Harmonia Mundi France). The liner notes of the original LP version (all but entirely missing in the CD version but thankfully available as a reprint booklet from John Wheeler) have this to say about the fragment: We have added the only surviving musical fragment of Imperial Rome: four mutilated measures from a work by Terence.

Group assignment, discussion Art and culture Culture is everything that human beings create in the world, in the physical space. Every single thing that we create is a culture. Art is one of the aspects of culture. It is a much defined creative approach to making objects or making concepts. It is defined as a physical thing that we create be it a painting or a movie or whatever. So it is almost like creating. It is a craft or a skill by which we create an object. It is a defined activity and it is a much defined product. Whereas the culture is everything, what we are surrounded by. Art represents people, cultures, values, and perspectives on living, but it does much more. While bringing us pleasure, art teaches us. While reading or contemplating a painting our minds go elsewhere.

Ode to Ancient Rome
ODE TO ANCIENT ROME This album is the sequel to my album “Echoes of Ancient Rome” – like the first album in this series, “Ode To Ancient Rome” comprises of a series of new compositions for an ancient lyre in authentic ancient musical modes, to evoke once more, the lost music of ancient Rome. These set of compositions for my replica Kithara-style lyre is my attempt to restore a precious remnant of the music of ancient Rome, which for the most part, is now forever lost... Unlike ancient Greece, tragically, virtually no surviving written music has survived from ancient Rome. These set of composition for my replica Kithara- style lyre is my attempt to restore a precious remnant of the music of ancient Rome, which is now forever lost - so far, all that has been discovered, is one pitiful fragment by Terence: TERENCIO, HECYRA 861 (Terence). Versus 861. Hecyra of Terence. Codex Victorianus Laurentianus XXXVIII-24, saec. X This piece can be heard track 19, on the recording "Musique de la Grece Antique". Here are some more details from the notes for this unIque album, about the only surviving fragment of written music ever found from ancient Rome: "We have added the only surviving musical fragment of Imperial Rome: four mutilated measures from a work by Terence. It is as if nothing were left of the Acropolis but a few scattered bits of columns and a pair of ruined capitals" All the various lyre-playing techniques heard in this album, are authentically based on lyre-playing styles which have remarkably survived from Antiquity & which still can be heard today in the amazing lyres still played throughout the continent of Africa, where unlike the rest of the Western world, a precious remnant of the cross-cultural influences from the around ancient world have miraculously survived.

Ordo Virtutum, Conclusion, Hildegard Von Bingen Liturgical Drama in Principio Omnes
Ordo Virtutum, Conclusion, Hildegard von Bingen Liturgical drama In Principio Omnes The music of ancient Rome was tied to three main purposes: power, entertainment, and propaganda. The "power" of Rome (as "conqueror"), and it's relationship to it's vast "conquered" territories is very important to understanding the culture of ancient Rome. The Roman virtues of dignitas (dignity), authoritas (authority) and gravitas (seriousness of purpose) were practiced by all Romans as part of their "duty' to the State. The Romans borrowed many diverse musical traditions from the peoples they conquered, rather than developing a uniquely Roman tradition of their own. From a socio-cultural standpoint, music in ancient Rome was primarily associated with: 1) the military and military ceremonies, 2) the Roman Theater, 3) Roman religious practices, and 4) the ritual use of music at almost all public/civic occasions. Despite the diversity and richness of Rome, there are no known musical examples of Roman music that have survived to the present day. Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179), the first composer whose biography is known, was one of the most remarkable and forceful individuals in Medieval Europe. Placed in a convent as a child, she took vows and eventually became an abbess, founding two convents of her own. A visionary mystic, she was also accomplished as a poet, painter, naturalist, theologian, and preacher, and she served as an advisor to political and religious leaders. Her music, which is notable for its distinctive departures from the conventions of plainchant, includes over 70 hymns, antiphons, and sequences, and the first surviving liturgical drama Ordo Virtutem.

Ancient and Prehistoric Music.Pdf
Ancient music is music that developed in literate cultures, replacing prehistoric music. Ancient music refers to the various musical systems that were developed across various geographical regions such as Mesopotamia, Egypt, Persia, India, China, Greece and Rome. Ancient music is designated by the characterization of the basic notes and scales. It may have been transmitted through oral or written systems. Musical eras Mesopotamia Prehistoric Ancient (before 500 AD) In 1986, Anne Draffkorn Kilmer from the University of California at Berkeley published her decipherment of a Early (500–1760) cuneiform tablet from Nippur dated to about 2000 BCE. She Common practice (1600–1900) demonstrated that they represent fragmentary instructions for Modern and contemporary (1900–present) performing music, that the music was composed in harmonies of thirds, and that it was also written using a diatonic scale. The notation in that tablet was not as developed as the notation in the later cuneiform tablet dated to about 1250 BCE. The interpretation of the notation system is still controversial, but it is clear that the notation indicates the names of strings on a lyre, and its tuning is described in other tablets. These tablets represent the earliest recorded melodies, though fragmentary, from anywhere in the world. The harps of Ur In 1929, Leonard Woolley discovered pieces of four harps while excavating in the ruins of the ancient city of Ur, located in what was Ancient Mesopotamia and is contemporary Iraq. Some of the fragments are now located at the University of Pennsylvania, in the British Museum in London, and in Baghdad. They have been dated to 2,750 BCE.

A magistrate would wear the tunica angusticlavi ; senators wore tunics with purple stripes clavi , called tunica laticlavi. Over time, Roman law evolved considerably, as well as social views, emancipating to increasing degrees family members. Paperback , pages. It was noted in classical times that Ovid's work lacked the gravitas possessed by traditional epic poetry. More Classical sensibilities eventually re- emerged in the Renaissance with Humanist Latin. Bowersock , P. Ancient Rome portal. Overview First published by Macmillian in , this volume is designed to introduce students to a wider range of Latin poetry than they would encounter in a simple author prescription. Imitating the Campus in Rome, similar grounds were developed in several other urban centers and military settlements. A substantial proportion of the population under the city's jurisdiction lived in innumerable urban centers, with population of at least 10, and several military settlements, a very high rate of urbanization by pre-industrial standards. The prevailing spirit of Constantine's government was one of conservatorism. The family ate together, sitting on stools around a table. Although theoretically opposed to Greek influence, Cato the Elder wrote the first Greek inspired rhetorical textbook in Latin 91 , and combined strains of Greek and Roman history into a method combining both.

Byzantine Music - Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia 4/17/15 11:43 AM
Byzantine music - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 4/17/15 11:43 AM Byzantine music From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Byzantine music (Modern Greek: Βυζαντινή μουσική), in a narrow sense, is the music of the Byzantine Empire. Music of Greece Originally it consisted of songs and hymns composed to Greek texts used for courtly ceremonials, during festivals, or as paraliturgical and liturgical music. The ecclesiastical forms of Byzantine music are the best known forms today, because different Orthodox traditions still identify with the heritage of Byzantine music, when their cantors sing monodic chant out of the traditional chant books like sticherarion which in fact consisted of five books, and the heirmologion. Byzantine music did not disappear after the fall of Constantinople. Its traditions continued under the Patriarchate of Constantinople which was annexed by the Islamic Ottoman ruler Sultan Mehmed II in 1454, and granted administrative responsibilities over all Orthodox Christians. During the decline of the Ottoman Empire in the 19th century, burgeoning splinter nations in the Balkans declared autonomy or "autocephaly" against the Ecumenical Patriarchate. The new self-declared patriarchates were independent nations defined by their religion. In this context, Christian religious chant General topics practiced in the Ottoman empire, Bulgaria and Greece Ancient music · Byzantine music · Opera · Greek among other nations, was based on the historical roots of musical system · Greek musical instruments · Greek the art tracing back to
