Aulos or auloi αυλός double pipes from antique greece, an improvisation on a reconstruction of the Louvre Aulos found in Egypt, played by Max Brumberg in south France.
I am playing on reeds and Aulos I made myself, it took me one year intense research and many reeds and master Robin Howell helped me to get them going, there is still a lot to investigate.
Do you feel the sound is triggering something in you?
The Aulos are from the Greek antique and were used in rituals, theatre, therapy and amusement. All the players I know and many listeners have described interesting experiences provoked by playing the instrument.
The two pipes are tuned in a fourth to each other. The instrument itself is a reproduction of an instrument found in Egypt, exactly the same hole setting it must have sounded l similar when people played it. Though the players were far more experienced playing in a tradition of an instrument being already played for about 2000ys in those days. Nowadays we are rediscovering this ancient instrument and its sounds and for me it is an amazing thing to be part of the people rediscovering the Aulos.....
The breathing technique used is the very same like on the didgeridoo, circular breathing.

I wish they had used this instrument for the Atreides arrival in Dune instead of bagpipes. Would have been even more surreal and fitting with their lore having greek origins.
I love Dune, listened to all the audiobooks while working on my instruments. The latest movie was great but you are so right with that bagpipe scene. Funny it never came into my mind they could have used Aulos.
They could have used Tsambouna too
@@patrickcannady2066 Exactly!! The ancient Greek bagpipes!!
Wow didn't think of that but it would be more fitting and profound
@@patrickcannady2066 or Askomandoura, or Dankiyo, or gaida...any country so rocky will have flocks and herds--and so bagpipes!
I am currently studying ancient Greek music and instrumnets, this is exponentially more beautiful than I expected. Thank you for this video!
Thank you and make sure you see the more recent recordings. There has been a lot of progress in the sound quality.
Haunting music of Ancient Greece
it sounds soooo scaryyy , its like a sound of war and sad bcos many people r devastated , it sounds like a spirit of people were killed and cant find peace even the outer world bcos of many greeds
Such a mesmerising performance. The sheer sound of the instrument provokes great spirituality and ritual-like atmosphere. Thank you and greetings from Poland!!
The sound of this instrument goes truly very deep.. ..and there is still so much more development in playing techniques to come
Gives me chills
C
Fun fact.. some creepy medieval dudes used this flute to get mad crazy.. like hannibal lectar crazy
This deserves more views, this makes me feel this is what Mr tumess's music should have sounded like in my head when reading the Lion the witch and the wardrobe.
thank you C Huffy , share it spread it and make sure you watch/listen to the more recent videos, the sound has gotten far better and also the dynamics
Very haunting/melancholy sound. I'm picturing this as the theme song for post-plague Athens.
Wow you play very well, hello from Cyprus.
Thank you very much, also check the more recent videos.
I always got intrigued by this instrument, in one of my classe in college we talked about it and the color it has really hit me Truly a powerful instrument, It even gives me old school God Of War vibes.. really nicely played
circular breathing! wow.
Needed inspiration for a Dungeons and Dragon's character's instrument of choice from the Theros plane. This may be just a bunch of nerdy mumbo jumbo, but just know that this video inspired me greatly. Thank you so much.
I once had a bard with cajun spoons
I just recommended my friend the same thing who was making a bard who got a gift from another bard.

Hello! I am a professional oboist and am interested in oboe's possible predecessors. This is just mesmerizing, thank you for sharing!
Ángela Calvo Ríos I am very happy you like it. ...and there is still so much to learn and find out. I lately changed the shape of the reeds i am using, now they are much longer and thinner, the scrape is also different and again new possibilities for sound and modulations.
@@maxbrumbergflutes that's great! Double reed instruments are always challenging! I have two questions, where do you find the repertoire for the aulos ? Or are there communities in Greece or other countries where this instrument is still played?
@@Angela.o.b here are some more recent videos, see how the sound has changed. Repertoire does not really exist, only fragments of melodies and harmonies.

Ok thanks for this message 🤗
Einstein called quantum theory spooky action at a distance.
MY whole body vibrates among playing, and my only words are these is spooky action at a distance.
The modern playing of such a long lost people the instrument relays the sorrow and glee of the past at the same time.
This creates such tumultuous feeling in me, all hairs on my body are raised, as a cat in alarm!
I am imaging the greeks working out hearing this sound
Wow Max, exciting to find your UA-cam channel just shortly after my questions on the Louvre aulos. Just subscribed. Hope to have this instrument made by you soon and use it at our Roman reenactment shows. I am sure that when I master this tune, the public will be chilled to the bone.
Hi Arno, make sure to check out our Aulos Collective channel, there is much more recent stuff :-)
this transports me to the parthenon
Good morning. I am recontructing an Etruscan flute too.
Sounds almost like the zampogna of southern italy.

Just beautiful..

captivated.
incredible!

So, the Scottish bagpipes are basically an aulos that's glued onto a cow's stomach?
something like that
Actually, there was an instrument like the one you describe in ancient Greece around the 5th century b.c, it was called askavlos ( άσκαυλος) or the askos of Dionysus.
Wish i could have that instrument
I just stumbled across this at a time of great turmoil for the world and for me personally. Your playing instantly brought peace to my soul - I had.to listen to it over and again because it is so incredibly soothing to the spirit.
Listening to an instrument that ancient people heard is like stepping back in time - it makes me feel so connected. Thank you for this. I'm going to share this and then listen to your latest video. I so hope you'll make more!
Now I want this played at my funeral! 😂
Max BRUMberg is the perfect name for an Aulos Player
I want a doom band with you, my friend. Gosh. Astonishing. Unbelievable. Thanks for this
лучшее, что я слышал👍🏻
I think this is pretty much like ancient Greek music sounded like.
wow. that's fabulous!
I actually prefer the sound of my more recent videos like

Cool sound! Thank you! And hello from the United States of Aholes 😁🌈🌻
I am happy you like it, stay tuned, I am editing two new aulos tracks at the moment going to upload them as sonn as I get the mastered audio file ;-)
Чоловіче, ти реально на висоті!
Дякую
Wow!
The instrument is still in use in Sardinia, Italy and is called launeddas
Not really any connection between Aulos and Launeddas. The Launeddas are single reed pipes. The Aulos are double reed pipes. Also the Aulos does not have a drone, both pipes are played with five fingers as melody pipes.
διπλός αυλός απλού τύπου
Fantastic.
Do you learn to play aulos by yourself, and auloi are they expensive ?
Thanks for your passion.

@@silvanobertolini5089 lol who told u those bulshits mussolini?
@@pickacard4474 What is the Meaning of the word Hell-Eni?
@@silvanobertolini5089 Albanian has around 30 loanwords from Greek. Modern Greek on the other hand has around 15.000 Homeric words in its vocabulary alone. Do us all a favor and throw your made up pseudo-etymology in the trash can.
Fallmereyers theory about the extinction of the ancient Greeks has been refuted a long time ago. And recent genetic studies prove a Greek continuity throughout history.
incredible sound, great breathing technique, what an amazing instrument!
Thank you, make sure to check out the more recent video, the sound has improved a lot. I really like the one where I play together with a shakuhachi player.

You are beautiful as well my lady
In the platonic dialogues they said that that this instrument provoked too much feelings. Therefore it was less suitable for young people to learn and lyre was milder and better.
Wonderful 💚
It's like an injection of BC aera while listening to Aulos.
I would love to be able to time travel.... please see this latest video, the sound quality of the reeds has changed a lot ua-cam.com/video/KbQVivtFQZg/v-deo.html
@@maxbrumbergflutes Who doesnt want to time travel, in a small part when i was listening you with Αυλός,i was time traveling!

And now tell me who is 300? Must be divine!
@@maxbrumbergflutes It's a very popular movie about the Greek Spartans ua-cam.com/video/sNAuYAAcC-0/v-deo.html. By the way you play the instrument beautifully
Referring to the movie, The 300
Where can I buy these? Thank you
Platon and Socrate like this
Quentin Pro actually Plato hated the Aulos apparently, but may be this he would have found interesting :-)
Me when I want to vape a lot of vapor.
I want one of these instrument! Is there anywhere I can find one??
I am just stunned. With two stupid pipes the ancient Greeks made the most stupendous music. Wow. Or maybe they were never as good as you.
guys I think you're all doing it wrong we still have the two pipes instrument in the Levant and it is played differently
after looking at historical paintings I take my word back it looks like you're doing it right
although we play it differently in the Levant
Mohamed Kabha check out some later videos, need to do some new recordings, there has been amazing progress. ...and please link some of the music you are writing about, I am very interested!!
@@maxbrumbergflutes
after digging into it I think that the yarghoul is uniquely canaanite in origin.
it is only found in the Levant and in sardinia (first colonized by phonecains who are canaanites)
I did watch the videos you are good
as for the instruments we have two
one is the yarghoul (ancient no body knows the origin of the name) which is made from two canes with different length each. mainly Palestinians and Lebanese
the other is the mijwez (means double in arabic) two pipes the same length, traditionally made from canes but today they make them from metals too.
this video is a Syrian refugee (possibly syrian Palestinian from the accent) in jordan zattri refuge camp
ua-cam.com/video/VhQ5nbJ39pU/v-deo.html
He plays the mijwiz and the video is translated to English
both instruments are used exclusively in weddings
edit:
here is a Palestinian playing a traditional folkloric song on a traditional cane yarghoul
ua-cam.com/video/iRv68_EEU94/v-deo.html
The difference is that we bind the two pipes together
Mohamed Kabha I guess the yarghoul has the same origin as the aulos, there were single reed aulos which must have been very similar to the yarghoul. Most aulos in the classic Greek and later Roman period were double reed aulos though and therefore played very different. We have some ancient texts as e.g. the ones of Theoprastus that explain the making and the form of the reeds very well so we can be sure they were double reeds.
@@maxbrumbergflutes
the yarghoul ia double reed
one is short the other is taller in length
watch the video I added after the edit
and thank you for the interesting info, keep doing the good work

Which tone is this Aulos??
Hell's Creatures this Aulos has the lowest note in (A446Hz)F#, then G# A B C# D E F# G# A B. In A 380Hz this would be A B C D E F G A B C D.
I make the same scale also in G, F#and F (A 440Hz)
Have a look here: www.maxbrumbergflutes.eu/en/floeten/aulos-auloi-tibia/
un autre monde s'ouvre...
Does anybody know where online I could get one of these?
See my website, I would be happy to make an instrument for you (www.maxbrumbergflutes.eu/en/floeten/aulos-auloi-tibia/). You can also come to our playing and reed making course (www.auletes.org) and always welcome to visit me in my workshop and try the instruments on site.
o mosquito quando eu deito
Ano
what scale are you using please ?
paul reed check on my website there is all information about the aulos www.maxbrumbergflutes.eu
I guess the Indian Algoza Double flute evolved from the Greek Aulos?
Edward Lacorte may be, the aulos are the ancestor of bagpipes, duduk, hautbois... the Alghoza is a fipple flute so it has a very different technique to produce the sound, but both are magic and live of the play of two pipes simultaneously.
gggggggggggod
Am i the one who feels hard listening because most of the time flutes are not in tone
Modern Ninja this is one of the earlier videos I find it also a bit hard to listen to it, check out some of the later videos and you will hear the progress. The sound is getting better, more embouchure and control on the reeds.

I greci lo hanno trovato questa musica nei popoli Yllirian che erano nelle loro terre. Yllirian biondi ,alti erano in tutta Europa prima che venivano le barbarie nomade romane e greke dalla Siria , scuri e di altezza media o bassi.Tantissime parole greche si spiegano solo in Yllirian e anche i nomi dei “loro “ Dei si spiegano facilmente in Yllirian e anche i nomi dei paesi , fiumi etc. E questa è una musica pulita Yllirian. Questa lingua madre di tutte le lingue europee si parla ormai solo in due piccoli paesi dì Europa, ma a scuola come tante altre cose non te li insegnano. Ignoranza e la debolezza del popolo che non lo sa di essere .
The Illyrians were not Greek. The Albanian-Illyrian connection is indeed in doubt, since both were illiterate. This means that comparing vocabulary is impossible.
