Description

Singer Solon Lekkas( 65) was born in Lesbos, where he still lives now.
Solon Lekkas is the most traditional and authentic singer from his region.
He is a natural performer of the old traditional songs of the island, as well as the so called 'Aman' songs or 'Amanedes'.

Kyriakos Gouventas is a member of the Thessaloniki Ensemble of Traditional Music and of 'Primavera en Salonico', Savina Yannatou's band. Kyriakos Gouventas also often played rebetika with the well-known singer Mario. Moreover he is a very successful teacher of all Greek music. Kyriakos Gouventas is generally very much in demand as a violinist by the most famous and skilled traditional singers and musicians of Greece.
Recently he co-founded the folk orchestra "Estudiantina", of which he is also an active member.

With Andreas Katsigiannis, also a member of the 'Estudiantina' orchestra, the traditional ensemble gets its most complete form, the santour serving as a harmony basis for the violin and voice, which doesn't prevent it from improvising itself.
