Alot of people criticize the song for sounding too oriental, eastern or Turkish. I've been receiving these comments over and over again, so I'll just pin the response here instead of answering individually every time. The first basic thing to remember is that this song isn't actual Byzantine music, it's Byzantine-themed music. It has no pretenses at being historical Byzantine music; it is however representative of modern Greek music with slight orchestral additions. The people criticising the song as being too oriental do it out of a basic assumption: Some are simply unaware of the deeply "oriental/eastern" sound of Greek music and are likely only familiar with the music of the Ionian Islands, the Italian-like, Zorba music; and like many non-Greeks, they have only been exposed to this highly specific and regional style of Greek music, and therefore project it as being the entirety of all Greek music-most of which doesn't sound like that at all. Others recognise that Greek music of today does have an "oriental" sound, but they attribute it to Ottoman influence, their assumption being that before the Turkish conquest, Byzantine music had a Western European sound, and that Turkish influence made Greek music the way it is today, therefore Byzantine-themed music should have a Western European sound. The main aspect of this song that makes it sound oriental is the scale/mode used, which involves a tetrachord (series of four notes) found in the Double Harmonic Major, called by various names by other cultures, such as Phrygian Dominant or Hijaz. The earliest attestation of this tetrachord is found in ancient Greek music, in the Lydian Chromatic Mode and the Hypolydian mode, and Arab writers of the early Islamic Golden Age mention in their writings that they are adopting the tetrachords of Ancient Greek music and basing their nascent musical style on this ancient system. Therefore the notion that such scales were brought after the Turkish conquest is nullified: these scales existed as far back as the Hellenistic Era, and Octavian and Caesar heard these very tetrarchords in their culture's music. In fact, google "Double Harmonic Major," and you'll see it referred to by another name: the Byzantine Scale. This "oriental, too Arabic to be Byzantine" scale is so important, so central to Byzantine music, that it is called, literally, the Byzantine scale. Another thing many people respond negatively to is Byzantine chant itself, the style of singing. The idea usually being: "this sounds Islamic, this can't be how Byzantines sang," or: "yes Greeks sing like this today because of Turkish and Islamic influence, but in the days of the Byzantine Empire, their religious chants would have sounded like Gregorian chanting." Gregorian Chant is not the original style of Christian liturgical chant. Old Roman Chant is. Old Roman Chant is the style of liturgical Christian singing of the Late Roman Empire. It is the common ancestor of both Gregorian and Byzantine chant, as both traditions evolved from Old Roman Chant. Here are a few examples of Old Roman Chant: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZH6Dtcp7g9bXnJM.html kzread.info/dash/bejne/pmd5tNp8ZMjaeNI.html The similarity with Byzantine chant is blatant. Old Roman Chant has that "Oriental/Islamic" thing going in the singing, which is simply a high degree of vocal ornamentation that is melismatic with a high degree of microtonal inflection. The modern style of singing found in today's Greek Orthodox Church (among others) is not a product of Ottoman and Islamic influence--instead, it goes back to the common roots of the earliest forms of Christian liturgical chant. Once again, it's historically impossible for this style of chanting to be the product of Turkish influence, but it is a very plausible hypothesis that it's Islam that adopted this style of chanting from the Christian Mediterranean basin at the onset of its conquests, and not the other way around. The assumption that Turks wiped out a nonexistent, Western European style of native Greek music is completely contradicted by historical research. Many of these "oriental" sounding elements existed in Ancient Greece and were in fact Greek influence upon Middle-Eastern music, which is a testament to the fact that culture does not turn altogether "Western" upon crossing from Anatolia into Greece. Despite being foundational to Western civilisation, Greece has always been more similar to its neighbours in the East than the English or the French on many cultural levels; music being one of them. Just to be clear: I'm not saying Turkish music is 100% Byzantine or that there has been no Turkish influence on Greek music. Bilateral influence has been occurring between these two cultures ever since the 1000's. What I'm saying is that the "oriental" vibe of Byzantium is native to it, and that Turkish influence did not fundamentally change Greek music from a Western one to an "Eastern" one. It was already "Eastern" in style before. Therefore using the sound of modern Greek music is not inappropriate for representing Byzantium, as modern Greek music is not an Islamic/Turkish/Middle-Eastern imposition, and is in fact, very much a direct continuation of Byzantine music and carries the echoes of it.

I am Greek and I am a musician and one thing I can tell you, your song sound amazingly Byzantine. If these ignorant people go inside a greek orthodox church, where the tradition of Byzantium still is kept intact, they will listen to the priests singing and they sing exactly the scales you are using. If it sounds too oriental let them understand and never forget that Byzantium was in the orient. Also for some reason in my ears, your melody sounds more ancient roman/ greek than oriental Arabic, it's ridiculous how ignorant some people can be and try to teach people who have made their research and have knowledge on a subject like yourself.

Basically he has to play a style of music that has nothing to do with his home region, because that's the most Western-friendly style and the one that conforms to American stereotypes of what Greek music "should sound like," it's pretty sad tbh

There is no such thing. States have used religion and nationalism. Hellenism is as dangerous and malicious is Turkism or Arabism etc or Americanism. Today you see USA is using capitalism amd dominating markets with its currency and converts people with money. Anatolia is now still evolving like many moves from Iraq or Georgia or afghanistan. There is no need for Hellenistic statism to describe the history as those were Greeks but Turks converted them to Islam & their national identity. Bulgarians, Romanians, Serbians, Arabs, Mongolians, Turkic tribes, Kurds, Jews, Armenians, Parsians now all have melted by the Romans & Ottomans not only in Anatolia almost entire Eurasia. Of course I. General east Mediterranean has Jewish, Greek, Ottoman Turk, Arab and Latin, Armenians’ forms of cultures, traditions. But all have common is Jewish because of Prophet Moses and Abraham. Study these well and see wider.

Soldiers tend not to be the most elegant and melodious singers, and these sort of war cries tend to be very rough and coarse, just like the men who sing them. Byzantium was made up of different strata, and not all of it was the elegant purple, I think the contrast between the chanting and the coarse cries shows that well enough

The Eastern Romans withstood all manner of peoples from the Huns, the Persians, Arabs, and even the Mongols. They stood against foes that their western latin ancestors would have regarded as divine punishments, and in the face of all them they spit and persevered longer than their latin ancestors.

@@billkar6479 Anthropology shows us the truth. ( Albanians are Pelasgians = Illyrians, Thracians, etc ... = today Albanians ) Anthropology. The current Albanians have the particularity of having the highest cephalic index (85 to 90) in Europe (Hyperbrachycephaly/round head) and a pronounced planoccipitalia (flattening of the posterior and inferior wall of the skull). Ripley, in his classification system, considered the shape of the head as the most reliable index in the racial diagnosis. Jacque and Morgan (🇫🇷) affirms source : (l'humanité archéologique, Paris 1921): "The oldest archaeological documents that we have about these settlers lead us to think that their migration was made by coming from continental Europe, and that, during the fourth millennium before our era. Then would have intervened the Pelasgians 🇦🇱, bringing with them the knowledge of the metal. While occupying the European Helladia, these tribes would have advanced until the Islands and the Asian territories ... the other, the most recent, which would have been the author of the Mycenaean culture, and would be related to the tribes, which in these times, inhabited Thrace and the banks of the Danube . These settlers would not be Hellenes properly speaking, but Thraco-Phrygians ". This brachycephaly is, also, celke of the mountain dwellers " said to " round head " of the 5th or 4th millenium which populated, partly, the Near and Middle East such as Sumerians (not semitic people), Hittites, Elamites. This characteristic is confirmed by the archaeological excavations carried out in the oldest necropolises discovered in a very vast geographical space going from the High Danube to Asia Minor while passing by the Balkans and particularly the regions populated, currently, by populations of Pelasgians stock (Albanian ethnic group). To finish I make notice that, C.H and C.B hawes ( Crete, the forerunner of Greece, London 1909 ), have established marked anaologies between Albanian skulls. This discovery corroborates, once more, the Pelasgians-Illyrians origin of the populations, known as Dorian, originating in the North of Greece whereas, only, their leaders or kings, minority in the country (king of Sparta Agis IV, in the IIIrd s before JC, affirmed that there were three periecles for a Spartan), were of Semito-Egyptian origin as the many arguments prove it.

As a Greek-American, I appreciate your comments. History illustrates how inextricably connected/tied we are. Humans have a limited vocal range, and essentially, we are ONE. Our differences make us interesting to one another as social beings, AND nothing more to the fates/higher power/God/etc. "Too Asian" sounds absolutely ridiculous to me and perhaps BOT-generated. Ridiculous.. When nations are inspired by other nations, that IS history. Learn some.....

Merci! Salut du Québec :)

To all my local Balkan brethren that aspire to Western Europe, culture and etc.I've got a message. Embrace your legacy and start understanding that "Oriental" is a misinterpreted term used today to describe "Middle-Eastern" music. The Mediterranean shares a long history and culture bond with the Middle-East but what fail to see is that it's exactly Ancient Greece inspiring the tunes that people would see as "Oriental" today. Oriental truly means Mediterranean and I urge all of us embrace that. Bulgarians, Greeks, Turks, Romanians, Serbs and most other Balkan peoples, we share a common Eastern Roman root. Remember that. I also want to add that to us "Oriental" and "Balkan" are two distinct styles but not to the common Westerner.

As a Turkish person i agree with you. The Byzantine Empire (Eastern Rome) influenced the ottomans as well. When i listen to this, it kind of feels like it is coming from Anatolia. It feels like i hear the music of my own country when i listen to this. The problem with western/northern Europe is that they dont understand the mediterreanean. They have to categorize everything. You are either this or that.. and that way of thinking is just stupid. I believe that the western world has a very different view of what the byzantine empire looked like. They feel like everyone was having northern european culture. They just cant comprehend anything.

I may be a proud Canadian, but I am also a Romaboo and Philhellene at heart. And this song encapsulates the Eastern Roman spirit of both Ancient Greece and Rome, perfectly. So Thank you for this glorious piece of music, Mr Farya Faraji! Roma Invicta•Roma Aeterna•Roma Caput Mundi!!! 🇨🇦❤️🇬🇷🇮🇹

Greetings from Turkey.The eastern roman empire is one of the greatest empires in history. It was a civilization that gave importance to art and science. It was destroyed because it had too many enemies.

They probably can't believe that the Greek world extends outside of the Ionian Islands, central Athens and Santorini haha

I am a Turk and the saz made this music more “familiar” more close to me, if that makes sense? Idk I like the fact that you added the saz in it, it feels nice.
