The Bible and Music

Oldest Christian music

This piece is extremely different than the previous piece by Levy on the Lyre. That musical arrangement was created only by the lyre, and was a lot longer. However, this piece had multiple voices harmonizing, and sounded like it had a lyre and bells as well. This piece had a very slow tempo and was relatively short. However, coming from a Christian background, and growing up listening to Gospel music all my life, it was interesting to listen to the first Christian song ever recorded.

    I agree that it was very interesting to know what the first melody within our religion sounded like. I think this is very different from what Christian music sounds like today. I am interesting in furthering the exploration of the evolution music within the Bible.
