Wow that's a nice tune Apache! I love the sitar and the beautiful sounds it makes.
 We should put some eastern music in here. Although I have to put this song up here, it's a sad Welsh folk song but it's so very important to remember. It tells the story of a lady called Myfanwy Taken from: BBC - North East Wales Myths and legends - The myth of Myfanwy The ruin of Castell Dinas Brân (Crow City Castle), which stands above the town of Llangollen, is the site of a tragic love story involving Myfanwy, a name that is not as unusual as you might think - sparking plenty of comments. Myfanwy, daughter of the Norman Earl of Arundel, was said to be the most beautiful woman in Powys, but she was vain and liked nothing better than to be told how beautiful she was, writes Nick Bourne from the Web Team. Many men went to Dinas Brân to court her, but she had nothing to do with them, even if they were rich and handsome because they were unable to compose and sing poems that supposedly reflected the depth of her beauty. Only one man, Hywel ap Einion, a penniless young bard who lived in the valley below the castle, was said to have the talent to satisfy Myfanwy. Luckily, Hywel was in love with Myfanwy, and one day he plucked up the courage to climb up the hill to the castle with his harp, to sing and play to her. He was allowed in to play for her, and while playing and complimenting her on her beauty she was said to have been unable to either listen or look at any other man. Because of this Hywel believed that she had fallen in love with him. But his hopes were dashed when a richer, more handsome and more eloquent lover arrived on the scene. Hywel, discarded and quickly forgotten by Myfanwy, composed a poem to his lost love: Far from Myfanwy's marble towers I pass my solitary hours O thou shinest like the sky, Behold thy faithful Hywel die!

That's so good!!
 I keep listening to it again and again.I'm very glad to see that there are more people listening to medieval/renaissance music both here and in the wider community. This is some great Polish Medieval music.

Just need to get this straight...
Are we allowed to post things that *sound* like ancient music, but are modern in time, or is it strictly an ancient civilisation thing?

Ah yeah, fair enough... I just have my own music type that helps me envoke a personal spiritual effect for me, although it's somewhat 'out of the norm', and definitly seems to be out of the timeframes of most of the stuff here.

You're naturally free to make a new thread in this subsection about any kind of music, as long as you (or anyone else) is interpreting it spiritually.
So considering you say it has a spiritual effect on you, by all means, go ahead. Or ask Pa'li if this thread can be generalized a bit.

That's great Moco, it definitely sounds sacred in a way.
Fkeu, I was hoping that this could be a place where we can share music from ancient times to renaissance/victorian times. Though I think Eltu is right, you could make your own thread to share music that touches your soul, though I think there is such a thread around here. Moco: Check this out!

Yay! You can post any music that you think would be "ancient" as well.

I like all the medieval choral stuff.
It's the best I've got.
