The week that ends here at GME was dedicated tο previously unreleased live recordings of Greek music artists and today we will be interviewing what I regard as the most impressive female voice of the younger generation, while appreciating songs performed live by her: Despoina Rafail. An interview with her is always fascinating, as she maintains a solid connection with the history of folk music but, at the same time, she is a modern vocalist always keen to explore new sounds and melodies. With her impressive timbre, Rafail has been in command of a fascinating repertoire, from covers of folk classics by masters such as Zambetas and Nikolopoulos to songs from her recently released album “Little Summers” (Mikra Kalokairia), composed by Vangelis Mahairas.
