Children's songs by Mikis Theodorakis
Miki Theodorakis' songs for children were the first the composer wrote, between 1937 and 1945. As he says, most of them were written "in the freezing chill of History—the ordeal of the 1940s—in my early teens". Triantafyllos Batargias has selected a number of these songs, transcribing and arranging them for the Chronos Ensemble, classical guitar, two female voices and a children's choir.
