| The turks use an instrument similar to the Bouzouki called the 'Tanbur', it is an appropriation of Byzantine Greek culture in which the Bouzouki was then known as the 'Tambouras' which is depicted on a few mosaics of the period. |
Hi DigenisAkritas, thanks for letting me know about the instrument... |

| another brilliant cypriot song...but anna vissi seems to ruin it imo. could be the sound quality. My little cousin has sung teh sang clearer and better tehn vissi! |
It may be verging on heresy to say this, but I've always thought that Vissi is overrated. There are many far better singers than her on the Greek music scene. I've never appreciated the aura that surrounds her. |

Anna Vissi singing a version of 'I Tillirkotissa'.

For traditional dancing, nothing beats the people of Caucasus.

Those flicks and kicks were certainly impressive, I kind of felt like I was watching a kung Fu film...My favorite was the old man with the silver beard..so obviously full of wisdom...the kind of wisdom we can only dream of having....
