About the Lyre
The lyre is an ancient string instrument with a small body and two arms joined at the top by a crossbar. The strings run from the crossbar down to the body, and players pluck them with the fingers or a small pick. It was played in ancient Greece and appears in many old myths and pictures. Use this in a music lesson about instruments from long ago and trace up the strings to the crossbar.
- A lyre's strings stretch between a crossbar held up by two arms.
- It was widely played in ancient Greece.
- It is counted as a member of the lute family of instruments.
