The arrangement attempts to adher to the genuine Greek folk music style as well as allowing some "sea waves" through it.
A piano part is not included but a piano may accompany the choir, dubling the parts, if this is desirable by the conductor.
As a Greek living in Norway for most of my adult life, and in my many years’ work as a conductor of a Norwegian choir specializing in Greek music (!), I have experienced the need to enrich the choir’s repertoire with both folk song- as well as other -arrangements of Greek music: This gave me the opportunity to share with our audiences some of the centuries-long musical heritage, as well as helping me make known to them some of the History behind the music of a country of such international historical influence in the past, and such a tourist magnet in our times.
