- Опубліковано 7 тра 2020
- At the Moisa conference in Oxford 2017 ( • Rediscovering Ancient ... ) I played this improvisation on the Bellermann exercise No. 35. I used a reproduction of the Louvre aulos made by Robin Howell.

We making out of Hades with this one 🗣️ 🗣️ 🗣️ 🔥 🔥 🔥
Yes I've been waiting for this by itself since I saw the video with the other performers doing Greek music. Thank you for the gorgeous recording
Haha, I was just watching that same video and immediately stopped it to look up Callum when I heard him playing.
I was like, "I've got to have more of this!!"
the one unbelievable dislike is, as always, from jealous Zeus
You mean Apollo?
Or upstart Dionysis
@@michaelkingsbury4305 THESE YOUNG UPSTART GODS WHICH UNDERMINE BLOODRIGHT
it's the guy from the documentary video jealous he didn't get to talk over this one the whole time
Beauty! Entranced since the moment I watched that video on reviving ancient Greek music...
exactly same for me
Same.
I grew up reading about Greek mythology and ancient Greece in general, and I've always wondered what their music sounded like. It couldn't have been anything like ours now, after all. Now, I have that answer and I am more than satisfied with it
this one is actually an improv piece made during a performance, but you can look into actual ancient pieces reconstructed if you search up videos about ancient greek music reconstruction, etc.. one of my favorites is Euripedes Orestes!
Thanks for this, Callum. I've been transported to the ancient stars. Tears in my eyes... Beautiful...
As if the tune was calling out to me directly through thousands of years of time. What a magnificent sound.
This really puts you into the mind of an ancient Greek king listening to performers telling the stories of the adventures of Heracles, well done!
It makes me want to watch the odyssey or other greek movie
Yes thank you for this. I loved that solo and always wanted a full isolated version. Bless you
Maestro thank you very much, even if a few years ago I had listened to it, today unconsciously while I was listening to it I had goosebumps, I was shaking all over, and I cried very hard and several times. Something suggested to me that I had already listened to music like this (especially the first part) in the past.
One of the most beautiful sounds I have ever heard, no doubt the ancients would agree. Masterfully done, and truly aesthetic!
My instrument is augmented
Magnificent sound and improvisation, from today’s great maestro of the aulos.
WE CONQUERING TROY WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥
Excellent, my favourite Aulos piece by now...
Magic ευχάριστο
Ευχάριστο means pleasant. Ευχαριστώ means thank you.
@@thewayforliberation5801 yes I know what I wrote, and I was correct in what I meant.
This is truly stunning. I'm ashamed to say that I was expecting a performance on this instrument to be more of an interesting experiment than an experience of beauty. Well I have been proved wrong. Thank you.
Brilliant!
Thank you for the recording. As an Albanian this sounds very close to the kind of traditional Albanian music I always liked, with that slow rising and falling and the somber tone. Really beautiful.
A keyed aulos? Remarkable.
Beautiful! Really transports me back in time.
This is amazing
Awesome dude. I was looking through my liked videos, I'm glad I was able to find the Greek music video with you in it. Glad to see you're still going strong. Keep it up.
Beautiful
Thinking of Assassins Creed and with this music I get a lively image of the past
magnificent, can't wait to visit greece
Well done Callum!!
Mindblowing.
Magical. Thank you so much.
Our Alexander Technique teacher will love this and so do I !
simply amazing you are very talented.
Exquisite!
Beyond cool. Well done and at a high level. Chapeau
This is so cool.
Thank you, this is astonishingly beautiful!
Yes!!! I absolutely loved this. Thank you for uploading.
Incredible sound!
wow. absolutely amazing
Full of wonder
I don't think I've ever heard anything more beautiful in my entire life. The ancients were totally turned on.
Most beautiful is a little much.
Callum Armstrong reminds me of Colin Stetson. Using an instrument to it's fullest.
Awesome really loved it ❤️
In my opinion this is how it was supposed to sound like back then. I can imagine a banquet in Ancient Greece or a play at the theater back then where something similar would have been played.
He's also quite a fun bloke, a diamond geezer.
Πόσο εύηχο πνευστό.
You had me a fan wi the small pipes.
Such beautiful instrument. I hope you manage to visit Epirus and get inspired by the greek traditional clarinet, you would find it very interesting I think
Impressive
Is there anywhere this model of aulos is available to purchase?
This angers me so much because I come across commentators
"ALL ANCIENT PEOPLE SOUND LIKE THERE 4 YEARS OLD"
It's like if they only knew Callum's mastery on these ancient pieces it would shatter there whole entire realities.
I too was once like them thinking ancient music was so rustic, crude, and gross.
Callum presents the ancients as I imagine, Vibrant, full of beauty, and new hope.
Civilization coming together,
The experience and cherishing of catharsis and the human experience.
Evern the odysses showed us this in the humanities, as King Aggamemenon beseached Achilles and pleased for his Son Hector to be returned for a proper burial.
Showing the reality of human starkness.
Check out what Launeddas sounds like, they were invented before the bronze age. Made entirely with reeds and beeswax. In Sardinia they still play some old pieces from the past.

sounds like a difficult instrument, also where you got yours, love the sound!
2:11 Sounds like something you would hear from Mannheim Steamroller
ΟΜΟΡΦΟ
Is there a score for this improvisation, if yes where can i find it?
Vine buscando cobre y encontré oro! Ahora necesito meter esto al Rome 2 para jugar con los griegos

Magnifcent. It would be useful to be told what these Bellermann Exercises are - hardly common knowledge. Here's Wiki: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anonymus_Bellermanni
