i think it makes you sing in a greek voice
I can't believe someone would write that. I was in a greek play and I was chorus and the chorus were just townsfolk who told the story. The spoke in rhyme.
sabastion and the seven apples
it depended on the role that they were playing. in Antigone, the were the elders that spoke in a poetic way and described things as they went along.

The provision of musical interludes in the intervals between the scenes of the play is one role of the chorus. The interval is called the 'stasimon'. The scene is called an 'episode'. The provision of a commentary on what happens in the play is another chorus role. So the roles come down to education and entertainment.The chorus conforms to society by making sure that it meets the expectations of the audience. That audience is drawn from segments of ancient Greek society. The ancient Greek audience expects to find a certain length and meter in the choral odes. They expect to hear the chorus singing and see the chorus dancing in first one direction and then the opposite. They expect to understand the play's backgroundand course of events through the choral commentaries. They expect to witness the transmission of legends and myths that reconcile the actions of mortals with the will of the gods.
It is in the words of the chorus leader and the prophetthat the playwright finds a role in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, ancient Greek theater aims to entertain and instruct. The chorus of Theban elders assumes the main role of entertainment in the play through its dancing and singing. The main role of instruction is assumed by the chorus leader as well as any oracle or prophet. Instructors represent the playwright in presenting certain takeaway themes to the audience.
The Chorus in Electra, the Greek tragedy by Euripides, consisted of the virgin country women from Mycenae.
