Anespera

Anespera (eternal) are the holy scenes of the memory which the music without words tries to describe" says Ch. Tsiamoulis in the introductory note of the album "ANESPERA". The music tradition handed down by the Hellenism of Pontos is very significant. Inspired by this heritage Christos Tsiamoulis composed "ANESPERA" and presented it at the Odeon of Herod Atticus in June 1999. Anespera are the scenes of memory and they hurt us but, according to Tsiamoulis' approach, this pain elevates the person who lives it. Having next to him the most significant at this present time Pontian lyre player, Giorgos Amarantides (to whom the dirge included in the album belongs), and with the contribution of outstanding musicians who participate in the album, Tsiamoulis presents a deep and fundamental musical composition which follows the course of a folk who turned its pain into music and its passion into dance.
