 Greek singer Savina Yannatou describes the human voice as "an instrument that resides inside our body. I mean you become an instrument yourself..." She has spent her young career proving the power of the voice, in recordings that range from the traditional to the avant garde, each unique and unwavering it its commitment to the art of the song itself. You can read an interview with her in RootsWorld I am pleased to offer an excellent collection of recordings, many very hard to find and imported from Greece. I can also special order a few others if you have some patience. Ms Yannatou also performs with other artists like Mode Plagal and you can search for other recordings here

 Virgin Maries of the World - Savina Yannatou $temp out of stock-19.99 (cdRoots# res-yannatou-virgin) On the trails of re-discovering musical treasures lost in the depths of the centuries, united by a most obvious and at the same time unsuspecting narrative thread, Savina Yannatou and the Primavera en Salonico Ensemble present a collection of popular and folk songs, hymns, encomia, eulogies, lamentations, carols, excerpts from popular masses (missa) all dedicated to the universal figure of Virgin Mary.
 Traditional Greek Lullabies - Kypourgos and Yannatou $temp out of stock-19.99 (cdRoots# res-greek-lullaby) The idea for an album compilation of lullabies was from composer Nikos Kypourgos and coincided with his daughter`s birth. Most of these traditional songs have been preserved in various archives. The fact that Kypourgos did not have any recorded material at his disposal provided an alibi to treat the songs more freely. This final compilation is performed by a group of excellent musicians complemented by the unique voice of Savina Yannatou. The real secret of Lullabies is that they can actually touch and appeal to grown-ups just as much as children.

Simply beautiful.

They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them

can, I use recycled shipping

pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
