23. A Fiddler's Fervor: The History of the Cypriot Fiddler with Nicoletta Demetriou
Update: 2024-02-021
Description
When we think of traditional Cypriot music, typically we picture the fiddle -- ubiquitous to both Greek & Turkish communities in Cyprus. But just what is "traditional" Cypriot music? And who exactly was the Cypriot Fiddler? My guest this month is ethnomusicologist, Dr. Nicoletta Demetriou, whose work and book, The Cypriot Fiddler, frames the bulk of this episode.
More information on the Cypriot Fiddler can be found here including a NEW online resource called Cyprus Music Archive.
