Carrhae 53 B.C - Epic Symphony

You can buy this track and more of my music here: https://faryafaraji.bandcamp.com/albu... An original composition by Farya Faraji. I wanted to write a symphonic piece in movements about the legendary battle of Carrhae, which saw one of the most catastrophic defeats in the history of Ancient Rome, fought on one side by Crassus of the Roman Republic, and on the other by the general Surena of the Parthian Empire. On that day, the two greatest states of this corner of the world met, and the memory of their battle still echoes to this day. The Roman side of the music emulates Ancient Roman music, especially in the instrumentation: most of it is historical and uses lyres, aulos and a pan flute, whilst being spruced up with modern trumpets and modern compositional methods. The Iranian side representing the Parthians uses modern Iranian instruments since the music of Ancient Iran is lost to us, and the instrumentation revolves mainly around the kemenche, the tanbour and daf drums. The lyrics are in Latin and in Parthian, the official languages of the respective warring states. Latin lyrics: Per aspera ad astra, Per ardua ad astra, Exurge Mars, Mars Ultor, Roma et Imperator, Viribus unitis, Semper fidelis! Sumus filii Lupae capitolinae! English translation (loose translation): Through hardships to the stars, Through adversity to the stars, Awake Mars, Mars the avenger, For Rome and the Imperator*, *Given the timeframe here, imperator cannot yet be translated as emperor, as it will only gain that meaning centuries later when deep into the era of Rome as an autocratic Empire. With forces united, Forever loyal! We are sons of the Capitoline Wolf! Parthian lyrics: Az mazdezn bag, Werod Shāh, Shāhān Shāh Erān, Ke chihr as yazdān, Werod Shāh, Shāhan Shāh Eran Translation: I, the Mazda-worshiping, King Orodes, King of Kings of Iran, Whose race is of the gods, King Orodes, King of Kings of Iran, 00:00 Overture - The Parthian Empire 1:20 Crassus Departs 3:15 Surena Sets Out 6:12 The Romans Approach 9:40 The Parthian Drums 10:24 Charge of the Cataphracts 14:02 Blood 18:20 Crassus' Lament 19:30 Surena Returns Triumphant 22:26 Surena's Reward #epicromanmusic #sonsofmars #epicbattlemusic
