NIKOS XYDAKIS AKROTIRION TAINARON BACTRIAN STYLE

Bactria was in now-a-days Afghanistan-Pakistan-India. After Alexander’s conquest, the infuences on both sides-Greek & Bactrian- are evident in music (such as Nikos Xydakis’ songs from the album Akrotirion Tainaron-who’s blended in so harmoniously the “Indo-Bactrian“ sounds & greek lyrics/singing...) Pictures are from the Hellenistic period of Bactria where Greek Art is still evident. ENJOY the music! lyrics-Neraki ke Nirvana Yeniomaste oli ,klegontas ya ti mana, ya to gala yfeni o chronos, dakrya vasana megala, vasana megala... o Zaratustra monaha yenithike yelontas yi’afto ki ego ta pathi mou ta leo tragoudontas....
