| “ | How you can perform the music of ancient Greece when no "score" have survived? Conrad Steinmann, instructor at the Shola Cantorum Basiliensis, has done extensive research into organology, the characteristics of the Greek language, and millennium-old musical traditions. The result is a fascinating tonal scenery that ranges from instrumental virtusity to the poetically gentle tones of the human voice. | ” |
