Never expected to hear a song in Sumerian. Or an instrument Sumerians would have played.

A wonderful bit of playing and singing by Peter Pringle. From the video description:
"THE EXALTATION OF #INANNA was written in #Sumerian by the daughter of Sargon The Great, the High Priestess of Inanna in the city of #Ur, a woman by the name of #Enheduanna. What you hear in this video, are the first twelve lines of the EXALTATION, sung in Sumerian, and accompanied on a scale #replica of the remarkable “Gold #Lyre of Ur”, discovered in the 1920’s by British archaeologist Sir Leonard Woolley.
Enheduanna was born more than 4,000 years ago, and she is the first named author of a literary work that we know of. Her writings and her history are well documented on the internet, and if you are interested in learning more about her, I refer you to a wonderful website called “enheduana ‘dot’ net”."
The description also talks a bit more about the lyre, exaltation, and his approach. #music #AncientMusic #archaeomusicology #musodons #histodons

An interesting video started on the question: "Did #Ancient #Greek #music come from #Japan?"
Of course NOT!!! But it does touch on a really important trap that a lot of people fall into: hierarchical and linear thinking. And, Farya does a great job of explaining this fallacy, and the (ugh!) #musical evolutionism that underlines it. Since this is one of my regular rant subjects and 328%-confirmed pet peeves, I'm letting someone else do the talking for a change.

@Homo_viator - yes, I agree, this is wonderful <3 especially because it is such a beautiful song, that still touches people from vastly different background. ^_^
BTW, I also tried it on my alto recorder, today.

@ninawillburger What an amazing treasure! Wing bones of birds are relatively hollow .. and a #flute made from a swan’s wing bone - exquisite!

At the end of July I posted an article on my blog; a personal #research project along the lines of #archaeology and #archaeomusicology, about the #GalloRoman #PanFlute, which unfortunately are really rather obscure. I explored the #instrument and tried to glean glimpses of their significance in the #culture and #religion.

EN: Time for some ancient (pre-Mozart) music on Mastodon: a short introduction to the amazing Catalina Vicens, harpsichord player. She has a fantastic pair of hands and a soul to match.
If you want more, she is all over the internets, just not here on Mastodon yet (I think).

I’m grooving to Peter Pringle’s interpretation of the Lament for Gilgamesh today. Ancient Sumerian music is incredible. https://youtu.be/dDRD3c-WAec #Sumerian #AncientMusic #Mythology
