About the recording

 The floyéra, an end-blown ductless flute traditionally made of cane, wood, bronze or bone, and the sourávli, an end-blown duct flute of the same materials, were until recent years among the most common aerophones of rural Greece, similar to folk flutes found throughout the Balkans and West Asia. Typically associated with shepherds, they have appeared throughout the Greek mainland and islands under a bewildering variety of names. Regrettably, these traditions are disappearing as flute masters lack disciples to continue the practice.

Fortunately, Wolf Dietrich has assembled this impressive and comprehensive collection of performances, providing an aural record of the diverse textures, idioms, and instruments in traditional rural Greek flute music. The forty high-quality recordings include excellent performances of dance songs, songs of the table, laments, calendrical songs, and a variety of other genres from around the Greek mainland, the Cycladic and Ionian island groups and Crete, as well as the Pontus region of Turkey; even the Arvanites, Vlach, and Sarakatsan minorities are represented. All the pieces feature the floyéra or the sourcivli either in solo performances or as part of traditional ensembles with other instruments.

For each recording, the notes identify song type, performers, instrumentation, date and location of the recording, as well as information about song texts and the local use and function of the pieces. A few errors in track descriptions should be noted: the tzamára and kaváli, larger versions of the floyéra heard in a number of the recordings, are not side-blown, as the English notes state, but end-blown and played at an oblique angle; the double flute souvliári is mistakenly categorized as a double-reed; and the home village of the renowned Cretan bagpipe and flute player Manolis Faragoulitakis should be correctly identified as Vorizia in the Irakleion prefecture.
