A wonderful night last night at Sudbury Café Poets with Cameron Hawke Smith talking about Ancient Voices and discussing ancient Greek poetry.

The talk was illustrated by readings from Homer's Odyssey and Saphho in Greek and Cameron's translations into English to show the range of ancient Greek poetry.

Listen to a couple of extracts: a children's song illustrating rhythmic patterns: Swallow Song and Sappho's Poem To Anactoria sung by Carol Bleiker to music by Colin Whyles.
