“If you start improvising then something else happens, just as one thought will take you to another, without the connections being obvious.”Savina Yannatou
Greek singer, born in Athens in 1959, who sings the sacred and mystical folk traditions of the Mediterranean, the Balkans and Byzantium. She comes to them as an artist rather than from a liturgical role, and her voice carries devotional song across the languages and faiths that share that sea.
