About this Item

Illustrated boards. 152 pps with idex & biblio to rear. Two cds to inside front and rear covers. Small light mark to title page o/w a clean tight copy.

The Rembetika music collected for Greek Rhapsody was recorded from 1905?1956 in Greece, Istanbul, the United States and even a German prison camp during the First World War. The set is mostly, but not entirely, made up of instrumental music, steering clear of vocally dominated songs. The publication comes with two CDs that feature 42 meticulously remastered tracks from 78 rpm recordings of Greek instrumentals, including rare and never-before-issued tracks. Delving deep into the history of this period, this publication offers a unique panorama of the instruments and styles of Greek folk music.
