Duo Bass Ancient Greek Aulos Music Improvisation II

Описание: New and special in this video is the bass Aulos Lukas is playing. This is a bass version of the Louvre Aulos, about a fourth longer than the original and the larger inner diameter comes closer to the more ancient pipes.
Aulos or Auloi double pipes from antique Greece, an improvisation on a reconstruction of the Louvre Aulos found in Egypt, played by Max Brumberg and Lukas De Clerck in south France.
Lukas came to my workshop 2 years ago to learn about reed making and the aulos. This autumn he visited me with his friend Gerald to prepare a radio interview and we decided to play in St Flour de Pompidou.
We are both still experimenting how to join this two instruments and it is a challenge.
The journey to learn to play and to make reeds and the Aulos began in 2017 when I met Callum Armstrong and he introduced me to the Auloi, I felt deeply touched by the sound.
Since then Callum and me are working closely together on reviving this amazing ancient music instrument.
The Aulos are from the Greek antique and were used in rituals, theatre, therapy and amusement.
The two pipes are tuned in a fourth to each other. The instrument itself is a reproduction of an instrument found in Egypt, exactly the same hole setting it must have sounded similar when people played it back then. Though the players were far more experienced playing in a tradition of an instrument being already played for about 2000ys in those days. Nowadays we are rediscovering this ancient instrument and its sounds and for me it is an amazing thing to be part of the people rediscovering the Aulos.....
The breathing technique used is the very same like on the didgeridoo, circular breathing.
