  • Markos Vamvakaris : the Man and the Bouzouki
    Markos Vamvakaris : The Man and the Bouzouki. Autobiography PDF Author: Noonie Minogue Pages: 320 pages ISBN: 9780993263309 Markos Vamvakaris, born in 1905 in Syros was a pioneer of rebetiko, the urban folk music of Greece. The bouzouki was a disreputable instrument but he paved its path to glory. He spent many years, first as a stevedore in the port of Piraeus and then as a butcher in the slaughterhouse. During this time he fell in love with a tigress, his first wife, he learnt to smoke hashish and to play the 'sacred' instrument: 'I had a great passion. My life was all bouzouki. It took me over - but it also took me up in the world, way up ...' This is the first ever translation into English of the autobiography compiled by Angeliki Vellou Keil in 1972. It opens a window onto a time of extraordinary creativity in the history of Greek music, an explosion of songwriting in the interwar period. Its composers wrote about themselves and each other, the rituals of hashish smoking and the landmarks of a now vanished city. Markos the repentant sinner and living legend, looks back at childhood idylls in Syros, the arrival of the Asia Minor refugees, the terrible years of the Nazi Occupation, the ceaseless love affairs and disappointments, and the triumphs of the bouzouki. He offers a rare insight into the lives of toiling workers and the lowlife of one of the world's most ancient ports, where East meets West. Out of this melting pot he produced the classic songs that Greeks of all ages still love and know by heart.

  • The Rembetiko Music
    The Rembetiko Music Rembetiko music is a very popular genre of Greek Folk music. It is often called the Greek form of blues music, because it was merely formed in the same social background. Although it is not played that much anymore, its melodies, harmonies and scales have been a big influence for Greek music since. That is why I chose to do a popular, not only in Greece, but around the world too. research on its history and on its particular musical characteristics, that made it so Definition of Rembetiko Rembetiko is the music played by the mbe Although musicologists are not logy, they describe there so-tes. as vagrant, tainted, marginalsure about thepeople, terms oretymo people from the underworld.called Theyrembetes were mostly people who gathered in small cafes and tekes to smoke hashish, drink alcohol and play songs, in order to ex The ensembles occurring from those cafes would look somethingpress theirlike the lifes picture suffering. on the right (Photo ).

Stassinopoulou DANKSAGUNG Die Vorbereitungen für diese Arbeit, zu denen auch einige Publikationen zum Thema gehörten, erstreckten sich über eine lange Periode, die Niederschrift meiner Dissertation hingegen erfolgte binnen eines Jahres und fiel, wie ich leider sagen muss, in eine schwere Zeit. Die Probleme in meinem Land machten es mir mitunter schwer, mich auf meine Arbeit zu konzentrieren und ließen des Öfteren Zweifel an der Sinnhaftigkeit dieses Unterfangens aufkommen. Dass ich die Arbeit schließlich doch zu Ende führen konnte, liegt daran, dass es Menschen gab, die mir außerordentlich viel Unterstützung, Hilfe und Zuspruch zuteil werden ließen. Ihnen möchte ich an dieser Stelle meinen herzlichen Dank aussprechen. An erster Stelle seien meine Betreuerin Univ. Prof. Dr. Maria A. Stassinopoulou und meine Begutachterin Ao.

Prof. Stassinopoulou, die mir mit viel Geduld und Verständnis zur Seite stand, danke ich für ihre wertvollen Kommentare und Gedanken und ihr Interesse an dem Thema meiner Arbeit.

    AHEPA’s James Plevritis Evzone Chapter #405 Invites you to a Unique Cultural "Greek Movie Night" Presenting the Award Winner Movie "REBETIKO" Produced: 1983 Drama and Historic Fiction 2.5 hours The story is based on the life of the Rebetiko singer Marika Ninou and her relation with the famous composer Vassilis Tsitsanis. It presents the Rebetiko song as it entangles with the political instability of the entire Greek nation starting from the Asia Minor Disaster in 1922, the World War II and Nazi occupation in 1940, the tragic Civil War in 1948, to the even more economic instability of the 1950's. Mucic by the famous composer Stavros Xarhakos Saturday, March 21st, 2015 7:00 PM Holy Trinity Church – 10 Mill Road, New Rochelle, NY 10804 Reception with Hors d’oeuvres and wine will follow the movie Donation $15 Payable to: AHEPA Evzone Chapter #405 (501c10) Donations deductible to the extent permitted by law Portion of profits support the AHEPA Scholarship Fund Information: Peter Constantinides 718 543-8136, Joe Keane 914 738-4854 Elias Pantelaros 914 633-0678 "Rebetiko" Synopsis The time depicted in this film, covers a period in Athens from about 1922 -1958. This was a time of tremendous transition and instability for the entire Greek nation. The film begins with a montage of the Asia Minor Disaster which resulted in a population exchange, that increased the population in Greece by approximately 25%, almost overnight, in 1923 with most of them ending up in Athens. It was in these overcrowded and economically and spiritually destitute conditions during the 1930's, that the Rembetiko genre of music reached its height in popularity.

  • A Way of Life
    The Passenger: Greece — May 2020 ISBN: 9781787702189 A Way of Life Matteo Nucci Translated by Alan Thawley Rebetiko is rebel music by definition (challenging power, war and conformism), part of the cultural baggage of those displaced from Asia Minor. In recent years it has been reborn and is once again releasing its revolutionary potential. I was initiated into rebetiko by a Russian. His name is Yanni, a skinny guy with a glassy look in his eyes softened by a glint of non-conformity. He carries himself with respect and delicacy, and sooner or later you will come across him if you have fallen in love with this unique music and start frequenting the right places in Athens, the old-time venues that cannot be named because they have to stay on the margins of the law. You will see him bent over his tsipouro, the Greek version of grappa, and his cigarettes rolled from the best tobacco. A blond dandy, a peaceful rebel. Yanni Litovchenko smokes like a rebetis, a rebetiko musician, but he does not play and does not sing. He sits on the margins of these rooms full of music and ashtrays. And he listens. He dreams. Sometimes he will let out a yell or sing a verse under his breath. He has a passion for this music, and if you fall under its spell, succumb to the tales that he tells and his amazing night-time pilgrimages, perhaps you might have the same experience as me. At the beginning I thought he was just an unusual character.

It looked like we had closed that book, but then my agent said 'Not quite yet. Your home country hasn’t seen you perform these songs’.” As much as Nakhane has “basically had a world tour, we’ve played in every continent except Asia and travelling the world is incredible,” he is looking forward to stepping on stage here. “It's home.
