Rhythms drawn from Greek tradition, sophisticated melodies, modern musical instruments, lyrics of a highly poetic quality. Art song creatively assimilated the folk and rebetiko tradition, while remaining open to a selective incorporation of contemporary elements and currents. The 1990s form the spring...

The show "Listen and See, Look and Hear" is here, as every Tuesday, on Voice of Greece. Nikolas Angelidis and Grigoris Nanis — an improbably mismatched yet perfectly matched duo — bring us today’s stories:

Ο ίδιος αναφέρει στον εξαίρετο συνάδελφο και ...
