Songs of Smyrna - The Blues of the Aegean

with Pavlos Melas guitar Pavlos Carvalho bouzouki Cahit Baylav violin

Çigdem Aslan (pronounced Cheedem) is a rising star in the revival of rebetiko, the bitter-sweet, devil-may-caresongs of an exiled underclass, sung in hash dens and ‘café amans’ of Athens, Piraeus and Istanbul from the 1920– the ‘Blues of the Aegean’. With strong roots in the port of Smyrna/Izmir, rebetiko is a culture shared by Greeksand Turks that developed in mainland Greece following forced population exchanges, and was famouslyoutlawed in both countries for its association with the underworld and being too ‘oriental’ in outlook.
