CHRIS CHRISTODOULOU Bouzouki
ANNE MARSHALL Piano

The Bouzouki, a musical instrument synonymous with Greece, was with 3 strings and associated with the early traditions of Byzantine and Arabian music. From the Westernization of Greek music in the 20th Century, the bouzouki became a more modern instrument and a 4th set of strings was added. Thus giving birth to the 4-string bouzouki, which became popular all over Greece.
Now we are into the second decade of the 21st Century, and bouzouki player Chris Christodoulou presents here a unique recital. He will perform his own transcriptions of Western classical pieces from the Baroque period.
