PYROS ETHER

About Me

The band PYROS ETHER has an active presence in Greece since 1996. While studying the Greek rhythms and traditional Greek music (from Epirus, Macedonia,Thrace) in combination with modern improvised music, the group has created original material, based on both compositions written by the band members and well-known themes from the Greek tradition and Jazz anthology. Through this interaction, Thracean rhythms coexist with Latin ones, while traditional Greek dances, as kalamatianos and levendikos, are played in a jazzy mood, thus creating an effect of originality. PYROS ETHER have released two albums, "Pyros Ether" in 2000, by Legend records and "Anaflexis" in 2006, by ACROASIS records. ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ............................................................ ...........
