I love listening to the hymns of antiquitym. I am not skilled in (ancient) Greek, but there is something about the soothing tones of the Homeric and Orphic hymns being sung or spoken. Today, I wanted to share with you a few of my favorites to be found on Youtube, and I am open to suggestions about yours!
Orphic hymn to Selene
Orphic Hymn to Apollon
Prayer to Zeus (by Arkhilokhos of Paros)
Homeric hymn to Artemis (modern English adaption)
Homeric hymn to Hermes
Homeric hymn to Zeus (#23)
Homeric Hymn to Asklēpiós
