Recreating the sound of King David's Lyre? Another demonstration of my 'New Ancestral Musical Mission' - creating new music for replica ancient lyres in ancient musical modes!

This spontaneous improvisation, features my magnificent custom made Canaanite form lyre from circa 1,500 BC - recreated from an existing lyre found in ancient Egypt; now preserved in Leiden. This lyre was made by Luthieros:

These types of distinctively Canaanite lyres were almost certainly introduced into ancient Egypt during the reign of the Canaanite Hyksos kings, from circa 1,600 BC - and since the exact dimensions of this specific lyre are known, this is probably about the nearest thing we can get to the type of Canaanite form of lyre which King David played himself...
