Ourania Lampropoulou & Evgenios Voulgaris

This project brings together two of the most important instruments of the interwar rebetiko music culture: the santur and the oud. The duo leans on the wide harmonic spectrum of the santur, and the oud's clear melodic print to interpret the rich affective modalities of rebetiko songs.

At times nostalgic and mesmerishing, at others violent and hedonistic the repertoire performed crafts an atmospheric yet colourful tour to the urban soundscapes of interwar rebetiko.
