Kabeiros

Kabeiros project was born as an idea of the reconstruction of the Sacred Greek Ancient Music. The roots of Kabeiros come from the Kawir Band. The members of the band works on the sounds and visions of the Ancient Greece by use of traditional instruments and ancient lyrics and not only. So we want to believe that the music who becomes has the characteristics of the natural continuance from the Great Ancient past into our modern world.2007 Band foundation in October

KABEIROS LIVE IN OLYMPIEIA FESTIVAL
Orphic Hymn of Zeus

O Zeus much-honor'd, Zeus supremely great,
To thee our holy rites we consecrate,
Our pray'rs and expiations, king divine,
For all things round thy head exalted shine.
The earth is thine, and mountains swelling high,
The sea profound, and all within the sky.
Saturnian king, descending from above,
Magnanimous, commanding, sceptred Zeus;
All-parent, principle and end of all,
Whose pow'r almighty, shakes this earthly ball;
Ev'n Nature trembles at thy mighty nod,
Loud-sounding, arm'd with light'ning, thund'ring God.
Source of abundance, purifying king,
O various-form'd from whom all natures spring;
Propitious hear my pray'r, give blameless health,
With peace divine, and necessary wealth.
