Open-Air Garden Theaters and Musical Performances
Outdoor theaters constructed within palace gardens served as venues for musical recitals and drama during warm months. Built with semicircular stone seating steps and framed by tall archways, these amphitheaters created rich acoustic reflection for stringed instruments such as the lyre.
History of the Lyre in Royal Courts
The lyre ranks among the oldest known string instruments in Mediterranean history, originating in ancient Greece and Mesopotamia. Musicians plucked its gut or nylon strings over a hollow soundbox, making it a favorite accompaniment for classical poetry recitals in royal courtyards.
