Mikis Theodorakis

"Many others may have sung his songs, but when the Master himself does so, it has nothing more to do with "song", or "art", but simply with Mikis alone. Suddenly you hear the message, fragmentary and elemental. Suddenly you learn that the songs has a "history". That in the beginning was the Word."

„Mikis“ - clear and without frills is the title of this very personally CD,
where Theodorakis sings his compositions with his own voice. In his
own unaffected way he interpretates the songs about special and
everyday themes.
The artist is accompagnied by an elite ensemble of excellent musicians:
Mikis Theodorakis Vocals
Michael Kiedaisch (vibra-, marimpaphon, percussion)

Greeces best known song-poet manages to conjure up quiet melancholy , loneliness and vulnerability like no other... insisten music for misty and damp autumn days, not only due to his dedicately placed accompaniment from Cello, Piano and Flute... In „Mikis“ Theodorakis combines the essence of his fascinating melancholy with moving poetry.“
