PRESS REVIEWS ON THE RECORDING OF "VAFTISTIKOS" IN CD

 

 

ANDREAS PARIDES – Conductor at the Athens Lyrical Stage 

 

“The recording of Th. Sakellarides’ operetta “O VAFTISTIKOS” by the Cyprus Lyrical Stage, amazed me due to the excellence of the interpretation and for the beautiful of the voices of the Cypriot artists participating therein.  The conductor of the Cyprus Lyrical Stage, Ioli Mousteri, starring as Vivika, dominates with the quality of her voice.  The amazing thing is that she composed and taught solists and a choir thanks to her unique musical qualifications which she acquired during her studies in Italy.  I also congratulate the excellent musician Stelios Argiri, who managed to give the sound effect result of 70-member orchestra, through his computer."

"Dear Ioli, I congratulate you on your praiseworthy initiative which aims to help the Greek audience from getting to know this treasure of the Greek music that is today ignored by the State and by those who are defending the music tradition."
