Greek Singer, vocalists, music and beyonda

4 posts in this topic

Startin w/ iulia karapataki, im gettin yous into real earthy, talent and music out in the

world. Now of course i picked the like, folky arabicy style folk songs, but the spectrum of music they are doin over there isnt contained to like this dark desert of sound~And its very much crossed into realms that are more recognizable to those into the strict Western scale of music singing and songwriting/composing or interpreting. Yas jus gota look for it.

Greek Magical Papyri (PGM): "I call upon the Word of the All, that which binds heaven and earth, and let it manifest in the circle."

Another more folky one, which btw, if yous are curious, that beat/dance rhythm is called Habanera rhythm in Spanish music. Im still looking for what the Greek equivalent would be, nd ill add to this wen ifind. theres something called asápiko ~ w/ an [h] aspiration before the first /a/, but i dont know what exactly that is, like, im not well versed in these folk/dance tribu, and what the connection is between the rhythmic aspects and the dance/folk element, and i say that cause ive seen so many different dances in Greek and Italian region, and i dont wana pretend like i know whats going on there.

The Classical Gorge~of music, rhythm & dactyl~or metric units 

This is how you might emphasize rhythm in the terms of the classics (Aristoxenus being one of the main authorities on rhythm), and i believe they take this same idea and apply it in classical Latin. Alas, alls it means is that your ratio (that is, the "ratio of a *base unit"~or the *shortest time value) is describing the initial rhythm/timing, in order to conform to the dotted notes in there. So instead of how we describe music in the modern era where we specify the "type of note" within the rhythm, they would say something like~like if we are supposing this is a rhythm made of one "long", followed by two "dactyl-like" sequences:

Long (—)

Dactyl (— ∪ ∪) (which approximates the dotted note feel)

W/ the following ratio set before hand: 2 : 3 : 3 (if/when  short = 1 unit, long = 2 units, dotted = 3 units)

The ratio math on that would be like this,

Base unit = ∪ = 2 ticks
Long = 4 ticks (twice short)
Dotted = 3 ticks (1.5 × base unit → 3/2 × 2 = 3)

Beat  Sound   Greek notat.  Explanation

1     "Bum"                Strong long (floor hit)

2     "KA"                Dotted: 1.5 units

3     "Keh"               Dotted: 1.5 units

4     silent   (opt.)      Fills out measure

I thought yous might want that, because its like the basis behind all music and how to think about it from the classical/mathematical perspective, and it underlays all of the musical aspects, once they start being added to the picture.
