M. Theodorakis / Jens Naumilkat / Henning Schmiedt - East of the Aegean

Mikis Theodorakis is a composer whose life and work are more closely connected with the vicissitudes of twentieth-century European political history than any other musician alive today. In calling his new album East Of The Aegean, Theodorakis harks back to his own origins - he was born on the island of Chios in the eastern Aegean Sea. In Jens Naumilkat and Henning Schmiedt, Theodorakis has found two musicians who are ideally suited for a sensitive interpretation of this work.
