The Boite presents Estudiantina of Melbourne

hero

 

Estudiantina of Melbourne is more than just a musical ensemble; it's a passionate torchbearer of traditional Greek music, particularly Smyrneika, deeply entrenched in the cultural fabric of Greece.

With a profound appreciation for the diverse influences that shape Smyrneika, ranging from Greek and Turkish to Jewish and Armenian, the ensemble creates a mesmerizing fusion that breathes new life into this age-old genre. Their music, adorned with instruments like the oud, bouzouki, violin, kanun, and guitar, resonates with an authenticity that captivates audiences.

Beyond Smyrneika, the ensemble also delves into the realm of Rebetiko, another poignant expression of Greek folk music. Originating from the struggles and triumphs of Greece's urban working class, Rebetiko's soul-stirring melodies and evocative lyrics serve as a poignant reminder of the human experience, touching upon themes of adversity, displacement, and resilience. Through the harmonious interplay of instruments such as the bouzouki, baglama, and accordion, Estudiantina of Melbourne crafts a soundscape that pays homage to the rich cultural heritage of Greece.

The ensemble, spear-headed by Con Kalamaras was born out of the Songs of Smyrne shows that the musicians were involved in. 

Estudiantina of Melbourne is Con Kalamaras, Maria Antaras-Dalamagas, Jennifer Dixon, Paul Karalis, Alex Petropoulos, Camille El Feghali and Vagellis Ginis.
