Fingon and Maedhros in the gardens of Barad Eithel

#silmarillion #silm art #fingon #maedhros #russingon #my art #ive been working on composition and figuring out how to frame these scenes #i know fingon probably used a smaller hand-held harp but the big classical one is so good i had to draw it

for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, so that means to combat John Cage's 4'33, I propose a piece called 3'44, wherein every single note within range possible is played for three minutes and forty-four seconds

#absence of playing? meet PLAYING EVERYTHING ALL AT ONCE WALL OF SOUND #john cage #4'33 #classical music #post-modern music #this cannot be done by singular wind instruments mind you but ensembles can if those wish to perform it via wind instruments #my vision is either played on piano or harp or a plucked zither tho

Hate him so badly I disfigured him beyond recognition and turned him into a harp seal.

You could even say his fate has been sealed…

Ancient Greek and Roman music Masterpost

As our national epic, the Odyssey, did I'll start from the middle. Please listen to the sound of medieval Greek music and then come back. It's an exercise, I command you!

Middle Ages Greek music is speculated to be "slowed down ancient Greek music"! 😁 So, take notes on that!

Christodoulos Halaris - Anthology of Byzantine Secular Music

(Christodoulos Halaris was a prominent Greek composer, researcher, and musicologist. He focused on secular Byzantine and traditional music, incorporating his extensive research into a solid and singular musical language.)

After your warm-up (and perhaps some confusion) let's get into what you came here to see.

What Ancient Greek and Roman Music Sounded Like - A Beginner's Introduction

Α fantastic introduction by a composer, musician, and researcher who calls himself:

OKAY, OKAY, HE IS FARYA FARAJI, YOU GOT ME.

So, this is going to be another excellent video where he spits facts. He gives a great impression of how ancient Greek and Roman music sounded like.

And no, they didn't sound like the watered-down (north)-eurocentric "ancient Greek music" on youtube videos you find. (who's surprised at this point, after all this Northwestern appropriation) Unless they are made by Farya Faraji because… the man knows his shit (and our shit 😂)

By the way, I called it "watered down", not because I believe western music is lame, but because the performers apply western rules to ancient Greek music, stripping it of all the Heterophonic complexity.

In the video above, you'll learn how the lyre should actually be played!!! And what instruments have been in continuous use in Greece for more than 2.000 years! And see all the ways our ancient and traditional music is more complex than Western music - such as Western music can be more complex than ours in other ways! (as also stated in the video)

And before you ask: Why does ancient Greek and Byzantine/traditional Greek music sound Oriental? Well, that's just your ear and biases and Hollywood stereotypes, my dear friend. See, these sounds are not (just) Oriental! They are originally Greek, too!

Many tunes and the way of singing the West associates today with the Middle East came from the Greek world (where these tunes are still in use, mind you) or other Mediterranean countries. That's not to say that Middle Eastern nations didn't have these scales and twirls for a long time - because they did. That's their ancient music, too.

Please see the video below to make more sense of my ramblings:

The Greco-Roman Influence on Middle-Eastern Music

All of Farya's videos have their sources in the description so make sure to check them out!

Now you can better enjoy the Epitaph of Sekeilos you heard in the first Middle Ages video! You can also listen to another great version by Farya, where he uses the above ancient Greek principles he mentioned in his video. That's why his version actually feels fun to listen to, thank god! (Of course Chalaris also orchestrates the Epitaoh in an excellent way)

Personal commentary: I am happy to share Farya's work online because he put into words why reconstructions of ancient Greek music online don't sound Greek at all. Greeks have a hard time relating to it because... that's not our folk music. They sound boring like Chopin playing piano when he was 3 years old. (But by now you know why! 😉)

Of course, ancient and traditional Greek music are not identical and no one expects them to be. But given our history, our music history, and cultural evolution, we know the sounds of our music - as all people can identify the music of their land and area. I am glad my gut feeling was right and the music wasn't actually that simple. With the complexity of our ancient chants and the plethora of instruments we had in antiquity, there was no excuse for our ancient melodies to be that simple.

Everything else we know he can do — he’s a great showman — but to a musician, Mick Jagger is a great harp player. His phrasing is incredible. It’s very Louis Armstrong, Little Walter. And that’s saying something.

#this is a very rough wip ... i kind of want to spend forever on this so that the lineart can be like. #chock full of detail #so much fabric is in the original painting so im trying to incorporate that #but i wanted to at least vaguely get the bodies down !!! #i have to get back to uni work but maaaan was it nice to just sit and work on this... #lacho #TURBOwip. even just blocking out the background is going to take forever #might change lalo's shoes to the classic blue moccasins HOWEVER i kind of am obsessed w keeping more of the original sandal vibe #also trying to figure out how to incorporate the gd. harp. thing. Pose #originally i was gonna change it completely so nacho was head down counting money #but i am trying this... #REMINDER TO SELF: put a vase of flowers somewhere. mayhaps in the space behind lalo's foot? #the upper foot #underneath the sill... maybe a chest. or a vault. smthn vaguely sinister #if i was going full crazy mode i would go with memento mori but idk if lalo's crazy enough to erm. #keep a human skull for decoration!!! #anyways
