Description

Agapi mou (My love) is certainly in good company, with the famous and beloved songs of the same name written by Mikis Theodorakis and Manos Hatzidakis. This instrumental composition has the same general flavor, presenting a simple modal melody accompanied by diatonic harmonies (almost always in root position). The second part breaks into a faster 7/8 rhythm in kalamatianos style. Afterward, an elaborated version of the opening material gives a satisfying close. The scoring for the “plectrum orchestra” has two parts for mandolin, one for mandola, one for guitar (classical), and one for contrabass. Clearly the intent is to evoke the sound of the bouzouki. This piece would be engaging for an audience, so it would surely be a good choice for any plectrum orchestra out there.
-David Grimes (Soundboard)
