Smyrnaean Minore

Description

A musical journey on the occasion of the centenary of the Asia Minor Catastrophe, featuring Glykeria, the most important singer of Smyrnaean and traditional songs.

Glykeria and her company on stage will take us on a journey to the musical paths of the East. From the sea of Smyrna to Constantinople and Bosporus, and from the Cappadocian market to the Greek ports and inland, where great composers from Asia Minor ended up as refugees, bringing along such songs as: “Apo xeno topo”, “Tzivaeri”, “Elli”, “Smyrnia”, “O emetic”, “Hariklaki”, “T’ apofasisa”, “Armenitsa”, “I Xaveriotisa”, “Karotseri trava”, “Xerizomos”, “Kapia mana anastenazi”, “I Smyrni mana kaigete” etc. Alongside her, singer Dimitris Kontogiannis and a multi-member orchestra.

With music supervision by composer and maestro Stelios Fotiadis
