Michael Levy | Ancient Voice of the Kithara @MichaelLevyMusic | Uploaded August 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
In continuing my musical mission, to 'carry on where the ancients left off', here is more new music, for the ancient Greek kithara of classcial antiquity, the lyre of the professional musicians of ancient Greece and associated in ancient Greek mythology with Apollo, god of music. This new series of videos was created in celebration of my current collaboration with the iconic American artist, Jeff Koons, who is featuring my music for recreated ancient Greek kithara as the main soundscape to his sculpture, "Apollo Kithara", in his magnificent evocation of a Temple of Apollo on the Greek isle of Hydra:

My replica kithara features authentic unpolished gut strings, tuned in just intonation, played with a plectrum of carved goats horn. The instrument was made in modern Greece, by Luthieros:
