5.0 out of 5 stars
A Superb Anthology,
By Dr. Debra Jan Bibel "World Music Explorer" (Oakland, CA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)
This review is from: Best of Glykeria: the Voice of Greece (Audio CD)
This is a different "best of" anthology of Glykeria, another one-name superstar. Although other Greek singers may have a smoother or more angelic voice, she has character and a powerfully interpretative and pleasing quality. The musical arrangements and musicans backing her do not dominate yet are as important to the success of a recording as the various ensembles who supported another master and voice, Sinatra. Here, they all are perfectly balanced in supporting the vocalist. This CD is bookended with two symphonic, mainly strings, accompaniment, and between she covers various Greek musical forms, from modern urban tavern and popular compositions to old Asian-influenced rembetica. One listening makes you interested, two sessions leave you enchanted, thirsty for more of her recordings. The price from ARC of England makes the recording affordable and more readily available. Discover why Glykeria is a major star in Greece....and Israel.
