Kourelou: Greek Music, A Patchwork Of Sounds, Styles, Rhythms, Instruments

Video on Kourelou, Greek Music

'Kourelou' is a Greek word meaning 'patchwork'; material made from pieces of torn cloth that would otherwise go to waste. The band reflects the broad, complex, colourful and wonderful picture of traditional Greek music; a synthesis of multiple styles, rhythms and instruments ranging from bouzouki to Thracian bag-pipes, Epirus violin and Cretan Lyra.
