I don't want to sound like an expert, but it is written that the music is by Dalaras. So it is probably composed by him.:)

I'll check it again and in case I am wrong I - or somebody else - will inform you. :pity:

There's written:

Διασκευή:Γ.Νταλάρας

what's meaning adaptation (but also rewriting)

Έχω την εντύπωση ,οτι το είναι δεύτερο μέρος (το... γρήγορο), είναι του Χρ Νικολόπουλου. (Θανάση διορθωσέ με αν κάνω λάθος!)

Hello.

The instrumental was written by Zambetas, at least the first part was. It is called 'Haramata me bouzoukia'. It is on several late 60's compilations, from memory, Syrtaki... Zambeta... kai Sia which was released on 8012 MARGO label. I think the composition Dalara gave to it was nice, I could not recognise it initially due to the piano intro.

As for the second part, I am leaning towards Nikolopoulo also. Did he possibly play part of it live on the 1987 lp, where Dalara and Alexiou did those fantastic duets of classic Kazantzidi songs? I think the latter part of that instrumental froms the second part of the mentioned instrumental.

Try and locate the Zambeta tune, it truly is a great piece of work by the bouzouki master.:)

regards

hmm

you know from what I recall hearing

if you're referring to the Instrumental piece

Hristos plays on Track 1 of the cd,

the beginning slow transition part was an original piece

at first composed by Tsitsanis.

The latter hald (the fast Hasaposerviko part) could well all be Nikolopoulos composition.

I read that on a video but not exactly complete accurate to my memory of recall in reading it.

Πρόσφατα έμαθα ότι το δεύτερο μέρος δεν είναι σύνθεση του Νικολόπουλου όπως πολλοί νομίζουν (ακόμα και μουσικοί του Νταλάρα) αλλά πρόκειται για μια μελωδία ενός παραδοσιακού τραγουδιού της Βουλγαρίας που είχε ακούσει ο Νταλάρας όταν κάποια στιγμή είχε βρεθεί εκεί. Ήταν δική του ιδέα η προσθήκη στο τέλος του ορχηστρικού αυτού κομματιού.

The piece is actually a song composed by Giorgos Zampetas, written by

Vaggelis Simos and sung by Mixalis Zampetas called "Ta matakia sou".

Xristos Nikolopoulos has an instrumental rendition of the same called

"Laika Perasmata" in his album Greek Sound:

Thank you Alona!

The story I wrote was spoken by George Dalaras to his musicians a few days ago...

Hi Xristinaki, as to the second part - your story is perfectly sound and true:

The track by Nikolopoulos is taken from an album released in 1997 -

2 years after the concert in Alte Oper in Frankfurt on 24th of May 1995!

Thank you very much Thanasi!

Now the question is.. if Nikolopoulos composed it already in 1978, then we must find out when Dalaras visited Bulgaria :music:
