Continuing with the Ancient Echoes album, here are samples from a couple of pleasant secular numbers: Song of Seikilos, whose Greek tune and text were inscribed on a burial stele; and Arabian Dance, another tune collected by the musicologist Idelsohn. OK, readers, help me out: which opera does this little tune remind you of?

Sounds kind of like the ballet music from Aïda.
