  • Kalliopi Stiga Rhythm and Greekness in the Cities of Mikis Theodorakis
    PRINCIPLES OF MUSIC COMPOSING: The Phenomenon of Rhythm | XIII | muzikos komponavimo pRincipai: ritmo fenomenas Kalliopi Stiga Rhythm and Greekness in the Cities of Mikis Theodorakis Four notes and a rhythm, the syrtaki rhythm, were identified with Mikis Theodorakis and Greek music. Figure 1. Zorba's dance It is the melodic-rhythmic theme of Zorba’s dance, which was immortalized in the homonym film “Zorba the Greek” (1964) by the prominent Cypriot filmmaker Michael Cacoyannis. This dance is rooted in traditional Greek music. Namely, the syrtaki dance – a modern and cheerful dance inspired by Theodorakis – emerges from the combination of two Greek folk dances, the hasapiko dance1 and the hasaposerviko dance2. The use of traditional and popular Greek music rhythms is frequent in Theodorakis’ work. The composer was initiated into Greek traditional music during his childhood while he was acquainted with Greek popular music later on, in 1947 during his exile in Ikaria Island, where he heard for the first time the most famous rebetiko song “Captain Andreas Zepos” (Καπετάν Ανδρέα Ζέπο) by Yannis Papaioannou written in syrtos3 rhythm (2/4). Theodorakis was particularly sensitized early on to the concept of the rhythm. During his adolescence, in the early 1940s, he studied thoroughly and he is deeply influenced by the texts of an important Modern Greek poet Costis Palamas4 (1859–1943). He agreed with the poet’s belief that “the rhythm in poetry – the rhythmic walking – symbolizes the rhythm that governs the Universe” (Theodorakis, 1986, vol. 1: 140–141) and moreover, Theodorakis adds the concept of Harmony. “That is, the rhythmic Harmony, which one realizes through the motion of the stars when gazing into the celestial vault.” (Theodorakis, 1986, vol.

ISSN (Online) 2620-0635 ▪ https://doi.org/10.32591/coas.ojsa.0301.01001k _________________________________________________________________________ Tracking the Creative Process of Mikis Theodorakis’ Electra: An Approach to Philosophical, Esthetical and Musical Sources of his Opera Angeliki Kordellou University of Patras, School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Patras, GREECE Department of Theatrical Studies Received: 19 March 2020 ▪ Accepted: 17 May 2020 ▪ Published Online: 28 May 2020 Abstract Taking into consideration Mikis Theodorakis’ autobiography, personal notes, drafts and sketches, several scientific studies about his musical work and by means of an analytical approach of his score for Electra, it seems that tracking its creative process demands a holistic approach including various musical and extra musical parameters. For this reason the aim of this paper is to present an overview of these parameters such as: (a) aspects of the Pythagorean theory of the Universal Harmony which influenced the artist’s worldview and musical creation; (b) the artistic impact of the ancient Greek tragedy and especially of the tragic Chorus on his musical activity; (c) his long term experience in stage music, and particularly music for ancient drama performances; (d) his music for M. Cacoyannis’ movie Electra; (e) the use of musical material deriving from previous compositions of Theodorakis; and (f) the reference to musical elements originating from the Greek musical tradition. Keywords: Electra, Mikis Theodorakis, lyrical tragedy, Greek contemporary music, Greek opera. 1. Introduction The tragic fate of Electra has been the source of artistic expression since antiquity.
