Be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here.

Synaulia is a musical group that recreates Ancient Roman music, since none survives. This beautiful piece recreates the sounds of a cithara, a stringed instrument from the lyre family. The cithara usually accompanied poem recitals and dances, and was often played at drinking parties, banquets and gatherings.

“Sappho is closely associated with music, especially string instruments like the kithara and the barbitos. She was a woman of high social standing and composed songs that focused on the emotions. A Greek mythology story goes that she ascended the steep slopes of Mount Parnassus where she was welcomed by the Muses. She wandered through the laurel grove and came upon the cave of Apollo, where she bathed in the Castalian Spring and took Phoebus’ plectrum to play skillful music. The sacred nymphs danced while she stroked the strings with much talent to bring forth sweet musical melodies from the resonant kithara “ - (x)
