Lyre — 19 String

Nineteen strings give this lyre the range to explore the modal scales and alternate tunings that defined ancient Greek and medieval music — from Pythagorean just intonation to the Dorian and Phrygian modes that Plato regarded as the only scales fit for the philosopher's ear. The hardwood frame is finished with care, and the tuning hardware allows precise calibration to any system the player chooses. A genuine instrument for those who want to move beyond equal temperament into richer harmonic territory.
