The Bouzouki

108 min Παρασκευή, 6η Μαΐου 2022

The sounds of bouzouki aren’t just confined to the backstreets of Piraeus and Psiri. Where there are Greeks, so too will there be the bouzouki. Pour yourself a drink and prepare to dance as Tom and Nick welcome their first guests in bouzouki repairer extraordinaire, Peter Apostolidis, and bouzouki player and teacher George Calopedos, to discuss Greece's national instrument. From its history and impact, to what makes a good instrument, as well as a discussion on who the greatest makers and players of all time are, this is more than just a discussion. It's a love letter to the sound of Greece and its power to transport us.
