Lyre’n’Rhapsody

LYRE'N'RHAPSODY

Greece

They released their first record in 2013 and it contained ancient poetic compositions and traditional Greek music. Significantly, their collaboration with Chinese guzheng virtuoso Chang Jing and Xiao virtuoso Zhang Di opened doors for them to tour China.

The twelve-string lyra marries magically with the sappy compositions, while the daouli sustains with a cyclic and powerful rhythm. Singer Athena Chioti has received numerous awards for the quality of her singing, while Areti Miggou is a highly renowned and sought-after percussionist also for her work in the recording studio. Aliki Markantonatou is one of the few musicians to perform with ancient lyra and recognized as a benchmark
