Savinia Yannatou

Singer Savina Yannatou plays music from her fourth ECM album, a dazzling evocation of her band’s hometown, plunging deep into its rich and complex history. Her band Primavera en Salonico are a delight, one of the most resourceful bands of any idiom, as they negotiate the inspired – and very varied - arrangements of Kostas Vomvolos. With Kostas Vomvolos (qanun, accordion), Yannis Alexandris (oud, guitar), Kyriakos Gouventas (violin), Harris Lambrakis (nay), Michalis Siganidis (double bass) and Kostas Theodorou (percussion).
