Terzis, Dalaras, Mitropanos, Voskopoulos, Poulopoulos, Kalantzis, Bithikotsis, Kalogiannis, Dionysiou, Korakakis, The Kids from Patra, Makedonas, Theoharidis. Are you sure you can handle all of these amazing folk voices in just a single radio broadcast? I hope so, because these are precisely some of the vocalists that we shall be listening to today, in part 3 of our week-long tribute to hasapiko dance rhythm. The realm of popular, laiko song has been constructed around major styles and rhythms such as hasapiko – indeed, it is impossible to even imagine this form of art without the rhythmic foundations provided by hasapiko, zeibekiko or aptaliko, among others.
