Join us for an afternoon filled with Greekness. Sevdalides band returns to the Green note with a unique repertoire of Rebetiko, Smyrneiko and traditional tunes from the North Eastern Aegean islands. Kostantinos, Vasilios and Michailis will be your hosts this afternoon. We do have a few surprise guest musicians who will make an appearance for some songs during the event. After all, Sevdalides band is all about creating musical bridges and uniting people through music.
Musicians
Kostantinos Lagou: Violin/guitar/vocals
Vasilios Voulgaropoulos: Guitar/vocals
Michailis Spyridakis: Bouzouki/ Vocals/Laouto
The word Sevdalis derives from the Turkish language. It means Lovestruck. In Greek, Sevdalis is a person who loves limitlessly. In our case, we are helpless romantics and lovers of music. Sevdalides band consists of Kostantinos of Michailis. Yet, we open our hearts to anyone who loves music and shares our passion. This is why it is likely that you will not see the same set up every time. Our philosophy is to create musical and friendship bonds with fellow musicians and audiences. Everybody is welcome to join as a performer or a listener. Music is a language that can be spoken in many ways. You don't have to play an instrument to be called a musician.
Additional Info:
Rebet Asker-Greek Roots Series:An afternoon of Greek Rebetiko for all the family!Rebet Asker was a restaurant/music venue which saw all the great Greek musicians and from the 20th century through to today pass through it. The walls of this little place in a small side street by Piraeus harbour have witnessed the history of the Greek Rebetiko as it has evolved over the last one hundred years. Some years have passed now, since it closed, but through this series of Sunday gigs we will do our best to recreate some of the magic of these musicians and their songs as it started and developed. Now in its 10th year, this tribute to the magical music of rebetiko, is the longest running series in London dedicated to this music. Come to hear classic songs and even some lesser known gems of great rebetiko musicians such as Toundas, Papazogklou, Skarvelis, Peristeris, Hadjichristos, Vamvakaris, Papaioannou, Tsitsanis, Mitsakis, Hiotis and more!
An afternoon of Greek Rebetiko for all the family!
