In many cases when there is no Myth, you try to create it! But hearing vibrates the neuron of our minds so much that it almost hits all of our emotions. It excites and stimulates! It rejoices and saddens! Even reflection makes us suspicious because when the evaluation is made you find that there is, almost, no future!
In Kythera one can find the latest traditional music bows. The last remaining musicians of the island try to coexist with each other in a small band and at the same time, for years of course, they have found that the profession of the traditional musician has no bread and butter.
The family, the whole body of Greek traditional expression, comes as a continuator of history, to prove that tradition is an experience and music is a living cell that is reborn with listening and pulse. Families of traditional musicians, musical families. fortunately there are still many! We enter a small, closed universe of a musical family, in its physical space, in the neighbourhood, in the café and in other fields of its musical and dance activity.
The family, the music, the contacts, the influences, the transactions, the confessions and the narratives about her life and actions, not only from family members but also from third parties. And finally a short tribute to the beneficial effect on cohesion and psychology through the ritual of musical gathering.
