Music & vocals by Farya Faraji, lyrics by Demetrios Paraschos, with much help from my friend Luke of the Scorpio Martianus and polýMATHY channel. Please note that this isn’t reconstructed ancient Roman music, only modern music with elements of Roman music and Roman instrumentation.
The Praetorians were the elite bodyguards of the Roman emperors, and were well known to be some of the greatest warriors of the empire too. Their role as bodyguards was often complicated by their participation in palace intrigues, and they sometimes killed the very man they were sworn to protect.
The lyrics use Classical Latin pronunciation; as much as possible, the melodically stressed vowel in a word is the one stressed in the language according to Latin’s penultimate stress rule, and I tried to stick to long and short vowel length as much as possible: hence within a word, the long vowels are held longer or sung melismatically, compared to the short vowels. However, I sang a few long vowels not long
