Ancient Mediterranean

Ancient Mediterranean music is a captivating tapestry woven from the diverse cultural threads of ancient civilizations like Egypt, Greece, Rome, and Phoenicia. Characterized by the use of lyres, auloi (double-pipes), and percussion instruments, it often incorporates modal scales and complex rhythms, reflecting the rich storytelling traditions and religious ceremonies of the time. This genre evokes the vibrant exchanges of the Mediterranean basin, where each note echoes the historical interplay of trade, philosophy, and mythology.
