Aulos (Ancient Greek wind instrument) music in the Tombs of the Kings, Cyprus. by Andy B on Friday, 15 December 2017
(User Info | Send a Message)
This is a recording of Stefan Hagel playing Aulos (a double ancient Greek wind instrument with reed) in the Tombs Of The Kings, a World Heritage Site in Cyprus. The site is a well preserved set of Graeco-Egyptian Tombs, and the instrument being played is also Graeco-Egyptian, a reconstruction of the Louvre Aulos
