    Constantinidis Yiannis - "Eight Greek Island Dances" For Piano

    After the 22 Songs and Dances from the Dodecanese (1943-46), the 44 Children's Pieces (1948-51) and the three Piano Suites (1952), Constantinidis wrote in 1954 the Eight Greek Island Dances. It is a suite of eight popular island motifs (Ta matakia sou ta mavra, Thalassaki, Pentozalis, etc.), which Constantinidis elaborates wonderfully in their various harmonic variations, now having all the knowledge and experience from his previous compositions . Another masterful juxtaposition of the sparse with the dense, the bright with the dark, the simple with the interspersed with all kinds of variations (small notes, apogiatura, tuplets, etc.). He transcribed these dances - one of the composer's most played works - for two pianos in 1971. The transcription for two pianos is dedicated to the pianists Aliki Vatikiotis and Nelli Semitekolo, who were also the first performers of the work.
