[@photonwaves]

[@danawinsor1380]

One thing that interests me is temperament. The "space" of frequencies between the notes is different in various parts of the world. The scale played by these instruments for example, sounds different from modern instruments used universally in the western world. In some circumstances people who play Middle Eastern or Indian music are now including western instruments such as electronic keyboards that automatically change the temperament to modern equal temperament which changes the character of the music. Before I forget, bravo to the musicians in this wonderful ensemble!

[@graurstefanilie3713]

I feel like these frequencies/intervals bring us back before the westerners got rid of them. Such a pity they eliminated so much from the ancient music.

[@danawinsor1380]

@@graurstefanilie3713 I agree! I think this kind of tuning may have been used in the western world before, let's say the 13th century (my guess). In fact, religious chant may have been similar to music in this recording in late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages. Even Gregorian chant may have sounded more "Eastern" than we think of it today. Pope Gregory may have wanted to make religious chant more uniform rather than creating a radical change in style. This is all my conjecture.

[@graurstefanilie3713]

@@danawinsor1380 until the 17th century, I would say. Until the invention of the piano.

[@Zaphod313]

The main difference in the tone systems of the East and the West is in the so-called neutral intervals that are still used in the East. A neutral second, for example, is between a semitone and a whole tone of the piano, a neutral third is between the major and minor thirds, etc. This is the most substantial difference, since these intervals are the furthest from any note of 12-tone equal temperament, wherefore they fall into the "cracks" of the categorical perception of Western musicians and audiences: they can't be placed into any known category and modes where they are featured sound the most alien to Western audiences. Other differences in tuning exist, but none are as significant. Melodic intervals significantly smaller than the semitone appear to have been used in Middle Eastern music before, but nowadays these are inflected close to the Pythagorean limma or the semitone, so the 'quartertone' many speak of in reference to Middle Eastern is nowadays rarely heard as a melodic interval. Instead, it's the smallest step in the modern 24-tone octave, which allows for taking a quarter away from the whole tone to get the 3/4-tone, i.e. neutral second.

[@JesFamMusCycPoLife]

Still, an octave is an octave and a 5th is a 5th, a 4th is a 4th

What a beautiful concert this is! Paraphrasing a famous Greek proverb, I have to say that "Music gladdens people's hearts". If only this world was ruled by musicians...The song "Chairesthe kampoi chairesthe" reminds me very much of the way "Kathistika tragoudia" of Chalkidiki and Makedonia are performed, at least until recently. There were hundreds that were being sung like that, slowly and gradually. Some of them that I've heard being sung in local fests are "Onta 'man nios kai lefteros", which stands for "When I was young and unmarried" and "Osa vouna ki an perasa", or "No matter how many mountains I crossed".

They weren't destroyed, but conquered. And conquered only from an administrative point of view, and not a cultural one. The same as the Romans did. After the Fall of the City, the Romans (Romaioi, as they called themselves) continued the same culture, speaking the same language, singing or playing the same music and so on. Before the Ottomans came, there were cultural exchanges between the people of these lands; so that's why it sounds Persian.
