Karaindrou: Elegy of the Uprooting

Karaindrou: Elegy of the Uprooting


Maria Farantouri (voice) & Eleni Karaindrou (piano)

Hellenic Radio Television Choir, Camerata & Friends of Music Orchestra, Alexandros Myrat

Elegy of the Uprooting is effectively an anthology of her greatest music for stage and screen, performed by 130 musicians. It’s an epic journey in colours, sounds and rhythms, shedding light on the themes of uprooting, exodus, exile and homecoming – themes that recur in Karaindrou’s haunting work.

Karaindrou: Trojan Women

Karaindrou: Trojan Women


Socratis Sinopoulos, Christos Tsiamoulis, Panos Dimitrakopoulos, Andreas Katsiyiannis, Veronica Iliopoulou,

After highly-successful albums based upon her music for the cinema ­ “Music for Films”, “The Suspended Step of the Stork”, “Ulysses’ Gaze”, “Eternity and a Day” ­ Greek composer Eleni Karaindrou presents work written for the theatre, for a new staging of “Trojan Women”. The large concerns of Euripides’ tragedy have encouraged Karaindrou to employ a broader musical canvas: resources here include a choir, directed by Antonis Kontogeorgiou, and a wide array of folk instruments, to build mythic soundscapes of powerful motional resonance. ”Trojan Women”, directed by Antonis Antypas and with music by Eleni Karaindrou, was premiered at the Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus on August 31 and September 1, 2001, where fifteen thousand people cheered the performances. The project was then taken on the road in and around Greece, with fifteen further performances, concluding with a presentation in Cyprus.
