The Greek Fiddler Collection

The latest addition to the best-selling Fiddler series focuses on the rich, diverse and pure folk tradition of Greece.

A wide variety of styles is presented, featuring music from Crete, the Peloponnese, the Balkans, Asia Minor and mainland Greece. Exciting rhythms and interesting modes combine to produce high spirited pieces, some of which will already be familiar to lovers of Greek culture world-wide.

These flexible arrangements for violin and piano also feature an optional easy violin part, violin accompaniment, and chord symbols.

"It is fascinating to explore the musical continuum which runs from Greece up through the Balkans to central and eastern Europe, and there are strong musical links – in rhythms, modes and more indefinable musical flavours – with other books in the Fiddler series. We find many affinities between Greek music and the Bosnian music in Sevdah, the Jewish music of The Klezmer Fiddler and the gypsy music of Hungary and Romania in The Gypsy Fiddler."
