  • Description

    Authentic Village music from Greece 1917-1955

    The Greek immigrant community exported many of its vibrant cultural traditions to the US - and none was more potent than the music they took with them. Here are tracks recorded in the United States by musicians versed in a style that takes decades to master. Added to their skill the romantic listener might discern the utter joy of reaching a land of freedom and plenty.
    Grammy award-winning archivist and researcher Chris King is a keen collector of authentic traditional Greek music and this selection is from his own library.
