The presence of the mandoline in Greece is located in the late 19th century and is linked to four different music traditions: Smyrnean songs, Athenian song, Eptanisian serenade and Cretan dances. Each tradition originates from another region. The repertoire and wealth of the Greek ‘mandolin’ is characterized by an impressive diversity of rhythms, harmonies, scales and melodies – due to the creative assimilation of both oriental and Western European influences. Since the music was passed from generation to generation by oral transmission and because performers of traditional music are usually at an advanced age, there is too little documentation on the performance practice.
