Amazing album

I came across this album recently and had to buy it. the interpretation of the songs transports the listener back to a lost time. deftly arranged and sensitively played, you can just hear the months and years of research that went into this music. My favorites are "Hymn to the Muse" and "Mount Olympus," but i really enjoy them all. I definitely highly recommend this beautifully recorded music.

Legitimate - beleivable - enchanting - scholarly These are all descriptions worthy of Michael Levy's works, and The Ancient Greek Lyre is at the head of them. His combination of BOTH ancient fragments and attested melodies, followed by a group of his personal compositions, was a great idea on his part and makes this an all around enjoyable album for both those reasons brought together. You are getting much more than your money's worth from Levy's Greek and Rome albums
Amazing!

I don't recall how I discovered Michael Levy's work. However, when I did, it was a revelation. His devotion to the older forms (and to the gods) is an inspiration. His work is haunting and human on a level that most artists today can only dream of achieving.
Extremely Talented Artist!

I was fortunate enough to come across Mr. Levy's music as I was conducting research on the music of Ancient Greece. I work for The Teaching Company, a well-known U.S. production house that specializes in educational video and audio courses. Mr. Levy's rendition of "The First Delphic Hymn to Apollo" exponentially enhanced the academic content and production value of our course "The Great Tours:Greece and Turkey," giving our audience a realistic sense of the music and culture of the ancient world. Mr. Levy's music deserves to be heard and appreciated by all who have a sincere interest in understanding the evolution of music and the sounds of ancient times. Or anyone who simply appreciates good music!
