STONE AND HEAVEN / Hearings and echoes of the Greek land

Store

"Two friends, Konstantinos and Dimitris, have a true respect for the tradition of their country, and for music indeed. Their love for music becomes the vehicle to penetrate the other vibrant dimensions of their homeland's tradition.

The experiential approach of tradition -their on-site presence in the places where tradition lives and is being expressed- makes them feel the local breaths up close. Through the fairy tale told by a grandmother. Through the song of an old sailor. Through the jolts of dancing in a village square.

A folklore reading in places where the heart of tradition beats... A fantastic story drawn from the roots of our place, from Thrace to Karpathos and from Crete and Mani to Pindus and Corfu. A fairy tale full of sounds and aromas from Greece...

A book mainly for young people who are involved with the Greek music and dance heritage."
