Concerning the spartans

[john m roberts]

That first one is a very good question. We love Greek art, sculpture, architecture and writing, but if you could ask a Classical Greek what was their greatest art, the answer would have been unanimous: Choral singing. Yet we have no idea what it sounded like. The "Paion" is of course famous, but once again we don't know what it sounded like. If we could somehow revive anything from Classical life, I would choose Greek choral singing.
