SUMMARY:Event M52: Echoes and Dreams: An Evening of Nostalgic Greek music
DESCRIPTION:Pavlos Carvalho (bouzouki)\, Sarah Carvalho-Dubost (cello) and George Tsolakis (vocals/guitar) take you on a journey through all of Greece with classic songs by Loizos\, Theodorakis\, Zabetas\, Xarhakos\, Hadjidakis and more. \nAn evening of beautiful Greek music that offers a bridge to the past\, across the seas\, and a glimpse into the future. Music from different eras of great Greek composers including Tsitsanis\, Zabetas\, Theodorakis\, Xarhakos\, Hadjidakis\, Loizos\, Kazandizis\, Andriopoulos\, as well as original compositions from members of the group. Arrangements for voice\, guitar\, cello\, bouzouki\, baglama and harmonica. Songs such as Eho ena Kafene\, Tzamaikia\, Min klais\, Paei\, paei\, Siko horepse koukli mou and many more that have resonated throughout Greek households for so many decades. \nMusicians\nGeorge Tsolakis (voice\, guitar\, baglama)\,\nSarah Carvalho-Dubost (voice\, cello\, guitar)\,\nPavlos Carvalho (voice\, bouzouki\, harmonica) \nGeorge\, Sarah and Pavlos are musicians who have been on the Greek music scene for many years. Between them they perform with different groups\, including Amalgama\, Plastikes Karekles and The Icons of Greek Music Project\, to name but a few. They have performed at venues including the Green Note\, Vortex\, Jamboree\, Royal Festival Hall\, King’s Place and Royal Albert Hall. However\, their passion is playing in the smaller\, more intimate venues where they present these songs\, closer to the audience\, in an ambience of sharing and intimate storytelling. \nEven though the classical cello is not an instrument traditionally associated with Greek music\, when its rich\, human\, sustained sound combines with the sparkle of the bouzouki and the exoticness of Greek microtonal voice\, something magical happens. Two worlds become one and a new common language emerges. After trying it once\, the results were such a beautiful revelation that continuing to explore this minimal combination of instruments with voice was too irresistible to not go further. So here we are\, with a very personal project that includes our arrangements of traditional Greek songs we love and some new compositions of ours\, inspired by the music of the past.
