Hello everyone! Welcome back! This week we are going to turn the globe around all the way to Greece. Greek music is seperated into two parts: Greek traditional music and Byzantine music. The difference between both types of music is that Byzantine music has more eastern sounds. Now
I am going to explain you fellow readers how
Greek music was used in Greece.

In ancient Greece, mixed-gender choruses performed for entertainment, celebration, and spiritual reasons. Some instruments people used in performances were a double-reeded aulos, the lyre, etc. Music was an important part of education in
Greece. Boys were taught music at the age of six. Well I hope you fellow readers enjoyed reading my blog. I have posted a video of Greek music at the bottom of this post. Toodles!!!
