Soulgazing (Song of Seikilos Modernized)

Soul is the spiritual or immaterial part of a human being or animal, regarded as immortal.

This song is one of the earliest examples yet found of a complete musical composition from the ancient world. Seikilos carved the song on a grave pillar in dedication to his wife. The Grave was discovered in 1883, near Aydin in Turkey. Archaeologists believe it dates between 200 BC and AD 100. Seikilos also inscribed a poem on the gravestone, it reads:

"As long as you live, shine,
Let nothing grieve you beyond measure.
For your life is short,
and time will claim its toll."

From the Atrium Musicae de Madrid directed by Gregorio Paniagua, recorded in 1979.

I do not own any rights. I just wanted to make it even more nostalgic, atmospheric and spine-chilling. As if you enter another dimension and get absorbed by it, with all the forgotten souls whispering around you.
