Description: The composer divided his own stylistic phases into four periods and all are represented here, from Impressionist and Greek National to twelve-tone and "entirely personal" (meaning all of the above as needed); the first two are very attractive periods but represent only about 30% of this 63-minute disc. Over to you... No texts. Kostas Chardas (piano), Myrtò Papatanasiu (soprano), Evie Papathanassiou, Kostis Theos (cello), Alexis Theofylaktou (violin), Grammenos Chalkias (clarinet), Jannis Anissegos (flute).
