“Drifting Thoughts” – a new improvisation for the recreated, ancient lyre! This piece features my lyre tuned in geometrically pure just intonation, in the intensely introspective ancient Greek Dorian Mode; the equivalent intervals as E-E on the white notes of the piano (and misnamed the Phrygian mode by scholars during the early Middle Ages).

I recently re-learnt & extended this improvisation, re-recorded and remastered it (with reverb sampled from actual cathedrals!), which now forms track 9 of my 2020 album, “New Ancestral Music – Rebirth of the Ancient Lyre”; a musical journey exploring the goal of achieving the ancient Greek philosophical ideal of “Ataraxia” – the inner harmony & freedom from distress only achieved, once we can learn to live the difficult truth, that the only thing certain, is uncertainty:

Once we accept this truth, only then can we sometimes simply appreciate the mystery!
