Dear Mr Theodorakis,
Apparently, you are a cousin of my maternal grandfather, Andonis Barbetakis (deceased before I was born, so more than 36 years ago). He apparently changed his last name from Theodorakis to Barbetakis, and moved to Mesologgi from Crete. At least, so my mother and cousins tell me! I understand a branch of the Theodorakis family is near Mesologgi, but I have never met them.
I sing first soprano and recently my vocal teacher asked me if I'd like to learn some Greek music. I admit to having little education in Greek music. Any suggestions from your repertoire for a first soprano? Where would I get a copy of your music? I live in Toronto. I haven't done any searching locally yet.
Best regards,
Paula
