My favorite online dictionary is usually spot on. It has two pronunciations. The only way I’ve heard it pronounced is the first pronunciation - kuh-LAHY-uh-pee. The second is KAL-ee-ohp which I don’t think I ever heard until a minute ago in that digital voice.
tecnically, both are correct depending on context. If you’re talking about the instrument, it’s a Cal-i-Ope-EE. When discussing the muse of epic poetry, it’s cal-EE-ope-Ay
“Calliope”. I thought it was “Kal-ee-ope”. I found out like last week it’s “Kal-I-Oh-Pee”.

It sounds Canadian in my head, but it’s an American rocket tank
