The most visibly evident to the Revels community were her tremendous costume skills: in addition to serving as Associate Costume Designer for nine Christmas Revels productions (including this one), Kate was the sole costume designer for four of our five performing ensembles, including nineteenth- century sailors and canal folk, enslaved and free African Americans during Civil War times, merchants, society ladies, and even Abraham Lincoln. Kate’s greatest talent not on regular display at Revels related to music.

  • Evdokia's Zeibekiko
    European Scientific Journal December 2017 edition Vol.13, No.35 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 The Bouzouki’s Signifiers and Significance Through the Zeibekiko Dance Song: "Evdokia’s Zeibekiko" Evangelos Saragatsis Musician, Secondary Education Teacher, Holder Of Postgraduate Diploma Ifigeneia Vamvakidou Professor at the University of Western Macedonia, Greece Doi: 10.19044/esj.2017.v13n35p125 URL:http://dx.doi.org/10.19044/esj.2017.v13n35p125 Abstract The objective of this study is to identify the signifiers and significance of the Zeibekiko dance, and those of the bouzouki itself, to a further extent, as they emerge through research conducted in the relevant literature, and which is anchored to those signifiers, as they are highlighted through their presence in material that is obtained from movies. The semiotic analysis of the film “Evdokia”, by A. Damianos (1971), is the research method that is followed. In this context, the main focus is placed on the episode/scene, where Evdokia’s Zeibekiko is displayed on stage. This ‘polytropic’ (polymodal) material that consists of listening to, viewing, playing music, and dancing encompasses a large variety of musicological and gender signifiers that refer to the specific era. The model followed is that of Greimas (1996), as it was used by Lagopoulos & Boklund-Lagopoulou (2016), and Christodoulou (2012), in order to point out those characteristic features that are expressed by the bouzouki, as a musical instrument, through a representative sample of the zeibekiko dance, as it is illustrated in the homonymous film. The analysis of images, as well as of the language message, lead to the emergence of codes, such as the one referring to the gender, and also the symbolic, value, and social codes, and it is found that all these codes agree with the introductory literature research conducted on the zeibekiko dance and the bouzouki.

  • The Coca-Cola Kashkaval Network: Βelonging and Business in the Post-Socialist Balkans
    The Coca-Cola Kashkaval network: Βelonging and business in the post-socialist Balkans Georgios Agelopoulos University of Macedonia, Thessaloniki Paper presented at the conference Transnationalism in the Balkans organised by the L.S.E. and the Osteuropa Institute Berlin (London, 26-27 November 2004) ------------------------------------------------------- Georgios Agelopoulos Assist. Professor in Social Anthropology Department of Balkan, Slavic and Oriental Studies University of Macedonia Egnatias 156, Thessaloniki, 54006 Greece E-mail: [email protected] Tel.: +30 2310477324, Fax: +30 2310891337 G. 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.

    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.
