Agelopoulos 2 The Coca-Cola Kashkaval network: Βelonging and business in the post-socialist Balkans1 This paper is based on the ethnographic study of Krasiotes, a bourgeois Greek population that migrated from the Bulgarian Black Sea cost into Greek Macedonia in 1926. A minority of this population preferred to remain in Bulgaria. The post-WWII situation in the Balkans prevented regular communication between the two sections of the once united community. Things changed dramatically following the 1989 political changes and the freedom of the movement of goods and persons between Greece and Bulgaria affected the Krasiotes populations living in the two countries. The Krasiotes of Greece and Bulgaria established cross-national trade networks. After a decade (1990 – 2000) of successful business and under the influence of closer links between Bulgaria and the EU, most of the Krasiotes businesspeople in Bulgaria have become incorporated into the post-socialist transnational elites. Such developments challenged kinship relationships, community symbols and identities both in Bulgaria and Greece. This analysis highlights the limitations of the “deep freeze theory” approaches (G. Kennan, R. Kaplan, Z. Brzezinski) concerning the development of post- socialist societies and markets.

  • Modality and Diversity in Cretan Music by Michael Hagleitner
    IMS-RASMB, Series Musicologica Balcanica 1.1, 2020. e-ISSN: 2654-248X Modality and Diversity in Cretan Music by Michael Hagleitner DOI: https://doi.org/10.26262/smb.v1i1.7752 ©2020 The Author.

Hagleitner, Modality and Diversity… Modality and Diversity in Cretan Music Michael Hagleitner Abstract: Cretan music is a vibrant and diverse living tradition, with identity-forming significance for the local population. It is a modal music whose modes, unlike in related modal traditions, cannot be described on the basis of characteristic phrases, as the same skopous (basic melodies) can be played in different modes. In this article, after a short introduction to the structure and certain peculiarities of Cretan music, four characteristic families of modes are described. The flexibility and permeability in the usage of modality are demonstrated using examples from the repertoire of kontylies. Such freedom is also found in the variation, embellishment and combination of melodies and the relationship between text and music. Such a high degree of flexibility is essential for Cretan music to fulfil its social function. It supports spontaneity, communication and expression in the context of participatory music- making in the parea (community) as well as the mutual interaction between musicians and dancers in Cretan dance music.

  • Traditional Greek Dance and Theatre1
    TRADITIONAL GREEK DANCE AND THEATRE1 I R E N E L OUTZAKI Abstract In modern Greece staged folk dance performances focus on the representation of a scenario. The outcome of aesthetic experience depends on the narrative forwarded by the organizers of the event. By comparing the master narratives of three dance groups – more specifically, a “national” example, an experienced “traditional” example from one site, and a third example of “historic” evolution – the paper proposes a framework for understanding staged folk dance in Greece. It juxtaposes issues such as: dance movements, dancer’s body, costumes, staging approaches, and the audience. The paper concludes with suggestions of starting a critical dialogue with dance teachers/choreographers in the hope of creating alternative approaches to staged performances of Greek folk dances. Keywords Greece; narrative analysis; staging; performances; folk dances It is an established fact that over the past twenty years a significant growth is observed in the scholarship on traditional dance in Greece. Meanwhile, most publications are preoccupied with the potential benefits of traditional dance in education. And to a great extent this may be justified. From 1980 onward, when Greek dances are established as a discipline2 and their instruction is in- tegrated into the school curriculum, a similar interest is observed among other educational institu- tions (e.g. cultural organizations, dance groups, and various dance schools that integrated teaching into their educational programs); traditional Greek dances are now regarded as a cherished form of educational material, and there is an intention to teach all interested pupils to dance, while also acquiring knowledge with regard to the origin, history and function of these dances.

  • Dancing Through the Ages in Greece
    Dancing through the ages in Greece A comparative study on Bronze Age-, Classical period- and Folk dancing Master’s Thesis in Classical Archaeology Linda Renhed Supervisor: Dominic Ingemark Department of Archaeology and Ancient History Lund University 2012 Abstract This thesis has dealt with dancing in the Greek Bronze Age from an anthropological perspective. The main question was whether any similarities in dancing in the Bronze Age through to the Classical period could be seen. By using an archaeological material and modern research on dance in the Classical period and on folk dancing in Greece today, the aim was to easier be able to interpret the Bronze Age material and see similarities between the different periods. The study has shown that later dancing includes running, fast steps, jumps and turns. The dances and styles of the Classical period and the modern folk dances are in that way very similar. Both men and women took part in these dances. The Bronze Age dancing was performed by young women, the style strong and graceful with focus on arm movements and the s-shaped body posture, something that is missing in later dancing. The conclusion is that there are no similarities between Bronze Age- and Classical period dancing in Greece. The Bronze Age dancing, at least in the art, seems to have disappeared in the period of unrest in the last phase of the Bronze Age. 2 List of Content Abstract ...................................................................................................................................... 2 List of
