Sappho is closely associated with music, especially string instruments like the kithara and the barbitos. The word "barbiton" was frequently used for the kithara or lyre. Paeans meant to be sung on the battlefield were accompanied by aulos and kithara. It was also spelled "cithara" or "kithara" and was Latin for the Greek lyre. Notable songs are "Kato sto yialo", "S'ena paporo mesa", "Apopse tin kithara mou". The Surrogate Kithara was built in 1953, and the Kithara II in 1954. The Kithara I was first built in 1938, and restored in 1972. The musical events which took place were Kithara players, Flute players, and singers. Kithara appears in the Bible four times (1 Cor. The kithara was the virtuoso's instrument, generally known as requiring a great deal of skill. The kithara was played primarily to accompany dance, epic recitations, rhapsodies, odes, and lyric songs.
