Pronouncing Iliad 1.1-7

[banchinimarco]

How is the pronounce of :

Μῆνιν ἄειδε θεὰ Πηληϊάδεω Ἀχιλῆος
οὐλομένην, ἣ μυρί᾿ Ἀχαιοῖς ἄλγε᾿ ἔθηκε,
πολλὰς δ᾿ ἰφθίμους ψυχὰς Ἄϊδι προΐαψεν
ἡρώων, αὐτοὺς δὲ ἑλώρια τεῦχε κύνεσσιν
οἰωνοῖσί τε πᾶσι· Διὸς δ᾿ ἐτελείετο βουλή,
ἐξ οὗ δὴ τὰ πρῶτα διαστήτην ἐρίσαντε
Ἀτρεΐδης τε ἄναξ ἀνδρῶν καὶ δῖος Ἀχιλλεύς.

We can only conjecture about how Homeric Greek would have sounded in the eighth century BCE.  Here you can listen to one scholar's version of Iliad 1-7, according to the generally accepted theory of pronunciation:  http://www.rhapsodes.fll.vt.edu/Iliad/iliad.htm

Here is a different scholar's version on an mp3 file that may be easier to listen to:  http://wiredforbooks.org/iliad/
