Vei Giota

Yiota Vei was born at Platistomo, a province of Lamia, and lives in Athens. She grew up with Greek traditional singing that she learned from her grandmother. She is self-taught, but the strength and purity of her voice are indeniable. This CD is a collection of Byzantine songs she has collected and interpreted, accompanied by a small ensemble of violin, clarinet, lute, dumbek, tambourine and other percussion.
