Rebetiko Evening
The Mayor and Members of City Council of Aglantzia invite you to a Rebetiko Evening organized on the occasion of the 8th of March, International Women's Day.
The Aglantzia Municipality will provide the first wine and food for free.
Rebetiko ιs the name for a type of Greek urban folk music. A roots music form of sorts, the sound of the genre reflects the combined influences of European and Middle Eastern music. Rebetiko music has sometimes been called the Greek blues, since like the blues, it grew out of a specific urban subculture and reflected the harsh realities of an oppressed subculture's lifestyle: poverty, alienation, crime, drink, drugs prostitution, and violence.
The basic instruments of the rebetiko song are the bouzouki and the guitar. Additional instruments used include the baglamas, tambourine, violin, accordion and finger-cymbals.
