On September 11, a special concert will take place in Nicosia, dedicated to the rich heritage of rebetiko and laiko—musical genres in which poetry, memories, human destinies, and genuine emotions are intertwined.
Renowned musician Yorgos Tsortzis, who boasts an extensive discography and many years of experience performing rebetiko, laiko, and Greek folk music, will perform alongside the Cypriot ensemble Archi Dia tou Rebetikou.
The audience is in for an intimate musical journey through the history of the genre—from its early roots to later forms of popular Greek music. The program will place special emphasis on the power of the human voice, the poetic nature of the lyrics, and the deep emotional resonance of the songs, thanks to which this musical tradition continues to resonate with listeners today.
