George Dalaras Rembetiko Ensemble:
Rembetiko is often referred to as the “Greek blues”. This traditional music with foundations in Asia minor and incorporating elements of Greek folklore, nonetheless, has deep roots in urban culture. The genre reached the peak of its popularity between the 1930s and 50s, and reflects the lives, desires and struggles of everyday people. These urban folk songs, often filled with bitterness, pain and disappointment are currently enjoying a renaissance, but George Dalaras, who is one of Greece’s most popular singers and performers, and has played with a host of stars from Jan Garbarek to Al Di Meola, already fired up a new era of rembetiko in the mid 70s. With his profound interpretations and powerful performance style, Dalaras and his band of virtuoso musicians invite the audience on an inspiring journey in celebration of cultural diversity.
