Thanks ma tsmuke, I just browse a lot on youtube. ;) I'm glad you like the music I put up.

Iron_Jones, that is like something you'd hear if you went to heaven/afterlife. ;) It's so beautiful to hear. :) I really like the first video you posted particularly.

I'm going to put up some traditional Japanese music, to keep the balance and share it with you guys. ;)

Love this track. ;)

Fan of the darker sounding stuff, eh?
I really like Sircut Cervus mostly because I've had the opportunity to sing it a few times.
I'm part of an all male choir that does that kind of music.

Yes now we have some Chinese music too!! Nice job Iron_Jones. ;)
As for darker music..I don't listen to too much of it..I just liked the first one a lot because it was very quiet and enchanting to hear. ;)

Liturgical renaissance music is magical in every way shape and form. I'm very glad that you like it!

No problem ma tsmukan. ;) It's like what you imagine hearing in a big lovely cathedral with the choirs singing.

There's another Japanese track that I have to put on here, the pics on it are quite nice to see as well.

bummar... Can't listen right now - "An error has occurred, please try again later" :(
I just wanted to say thanks to Iron Jones too for medieval music - some tunes are really nice. I love Ave Maria. & you sing them, too! Sweet. I am impressed :P

Ahha and, Pa'li, about Inuit throat singing - you make me smile cos we have a similar art in Khakassia - South East of Siberia; lots of shamans still live there. & my dear pagan-scientific grandma lived for 25 years in the extreme North of Siberia, beyond the Polar Circle. She was the only MD for many thousands of square miles, & had also to heal native people similar to Inuit (Nenets, Komi & others) - they did throat singing, too :) you reminded me with this track. She was Dr. Grace of sorts :) travelling around in a husky-drawn sledge :P The people called her Oolagan Doctor (Big Doctor) but they only accepted her help in emergency cases, otherwise, they preferred their traditional healing. But they would always share food & shelter with her. I noticed that people who live close to the nature - In nature, better to say - are somehow pure-hearted, be it those Northern people, or Bedouins with their camels, or Thai fishers... they have something special, they're very hospitable , they'll always help "just like this" & won't even understand if you offer them money cos for them to help, or to share, is so normal. "It is the way".

Sorry, I am probably deviating. You got me all philosophical with your Inuit video :)

No problem ma tsmuke. :) Bedouins..I'll try to to find some more music.
YAY found some great stuff!

you know what, the tunes on this thread are so great - I might think of keeping some for dance therapy sessions! :D A right mix between rousing, inspiring, mysterious, sad & soothing can do wonders, I am sure. they all call on different emotions - & we humans have such a range of them.

Iron_Jones: I finally got to listen to your Ojibwe track. Excellent! I find the singing beautiful too. I wish I could know the words :P I would sing along!

That's fantastic Apache, really this thread is about two things: Celebrating, sharing and remembering the old music of human civilisations and ages and to create joy in listening to such music. :) Exactly the kind of joy that you are showing Apache. ;)

Here's a civilisation that I hadn't put anything down for yet: Ancient Rome. :)

Carpe Diem!!

Here's one my choir is working on. It's an incredible piece. In lots of religious music you usually end in saying "amen". If you go to 3:21, you will hear the most beautiful Amen, EVER.

I was going to go but I stayed these 4:30 min longer specifically for your Ave Maria! Yes it is beautiful. Thank you :)

(It's interesting how listening to - & singing if possible - spiritual music can make you high! & you don't need no substances for that, isn't it curious?)

I think it could be that spiritual music taps into your emotions and then into your soul. It's very lifting and almost primal when you listen to traditional music.

Music's ability to "lift" me seems to be unrelated to how old it is. Music puts me in a good mood even if I don't know what year it was from ;)

Here's some Irish music. :)



















I really love the third one. It gets you in the mood for dancing. :)
