Hymn to Persephone (Ancient Greek Goddess of the Spring)

Показать описание
A live performance of my piece, "Hymn to Persephone (Ancient Greek Goddess of the Spring)", in one of my favourite ancient woodland glades.

This piece formed track 1 from my 2022 album, "Orpheus Tamed the Animals: Mythological Music for Ancient Greek Lyre" - available from all the usual digital music platforms, CD quality audio & a PDF booklets of the detailed album notes is also available from Bandcamp:

The lovely location is Lancaut Nature Reserve, in a secluded glade next to steep limestone cliffs, framing the River Wye - one of my favourite local spots to escape the mostly maddness of the rest of the modern world.

Lancaut was once a tiny village, long-abandoned during the Middle Ages, probably due to the plague - all that remains, is the ruins of a 12th century church, nestled in the remnants of the ancient wild wood bordering the banks of the Wye & surrounding sheer limestone cliffs - today I discovered it makes a spendid outdoor recording studio!

Just absolutely beautiful, gives me so much inspiration. You should do one that mirrors this for Persephone as Queen of the Underworld. I'd love to see how you hear that.

Thanks to your videos and website, I've ordered a Marini Made Davidic Harp/lyre. Would you say harp finger methods can't be used for the lyre?
