Greece has created civilization in the higher sense of the word. I am an Italian professor of English literature (University of Naples) but I keep repeating this plain truth to my students. It may sound rethorical, but I feel obliget to thank you and hope thay you are proud for being born in the land of Sappho, Sophocles, Pericles, and HUNDREDS of similar geniuses. Long live Greece.
all songs of Theodorakis are a reminder! and those memories are more memories with pain histoein only those who know the life of this great singer can understand me for what I mean
ειμαι 32χρονων.μεχρι και το 1986 την επετειο της 17 νοεμβρη μας μαθαιναν αυτα τα τραγουδια για τη σχολικη γιορτη...αθανατα τραγουδια υμνουν το μεγαλειο του ελληνισμου...ευχομαι να μην ξεχαστουν ποτε...
@VenomAlexiz You're welcome, my dear friend. Nowadays to stand for civilization and art and whatever is beautiful has become a duty. For ourselves, for our sons, for future generations.
ONLY ONE SWALLOW and Spring so precious, for the Sun to return will be hard work, It takes thousands of dead turning the wheels, It takes for the living to also give up their blood. God Master Builder, You created me among the mountains, God Master Builder, You enclosed me in the sea!
πωωω αυτη ειναι η πρωτη συναυλια που πήγα ποτε... με πηγαν οι δικοι μου μάλλον μικρο παιδι.( 4-5 χρονών). Πρεπει καπου πολυ βαθια μεσα μου να εχει εντυπωθει η εμπειρια, απο τοτε οταν ακουω ΑΥΤΗ την εκτέλεση μου ανατριχιάζω...
Το απολυτο ελληνικο κομμάτι!!!!! Δεν ξερω αν υπάρχουν στον κόσμο άλλοι ποιητές που να έγραψαν σαν τον Ελύτη και συνθέτες σαν τον Θεοδωράκη,,,,κάνουν ένα λαο ολόκληρο να ανατριχίαζει.....
Ενα το χελιδόνι κι η άνοιξη ακριβή για να γυρίσει ο ήλιος θέλει δουλειά πολλή Θέλει νεκροί χιλιάδες να 'ναι στους τροχούς Θέλει κι οι ζωντανοί να δίνουν το αίμα τους. Θε μου Πρωτομάστορα μ' έχτισες μέσα στα βουνά Θε μου Πρωτομάστορα μ' έκλεισες μες στη θάλασσα! Πάρθηκεν από μάγους το σώμα του Μαγιού Το 'χουνε θάψει σ' ένα μνήμα του πέλαγου σ' ένα βαθύ πηγάδι το 'χουνε κλειστό μύρισε το σκοτάδι κι όλη η άβυσσος Θε μου Πρωτομάστορα μέσα στίς πασχαλιές και Συ Θε μου Πρωτομάστορα μύρισες την Ανάσταση
I will be waiting them eagerly ^_^ These old concerts give a more "vivid" feeling . More "revolutionary" if you get me :) Somehow reminds me of an era we had more hope in us for the future. And since now things look to be going to hell is good at least to be able to live again the "air" of these old eras.
@apostolis7771able I wish to God you were right! I'm afraid, however, that our countries were the cradle of civilization in several moments of their bright past, but nowadays... Thank you very much, in spite of all. Your words elate my spirit. Let's hope for better times to come, my dear friend.
Η ιστορία της Ελλάδας , τουλάχιστον μετά τους Γερμανούς , μέσα από τη μουσική του Μίκη ! Χρέος μας να παραδώσου με τη σκυτάλη στις νεώτερες γενιές , γιατί λαός χωρίς ιστορική μνήμη , είναι καταδικασμένος σε αφανισμό .
@eleosasdasd I don't know if I am so wise as you seem to think. Oldish I am for sure, as I am 62 years old and have been teaching English Literature at Naples university for more than 30 years. I still lecture. My love for Greece and her civilization is of a long standing. It goes back to the years when I was as old as you and my excellent teachers taught me the ancient Greek language, thus allowing me to read and appreciate the Old Masters. Greece is a religion for me.
we are proud my friend, and all these difficulties we are goin through lately make us realise more and more what we are, what we gave and what we shall give.
one the swallow and the spring it,s very expensive,for break-up the sun we must all of us much work,demanding thousends of deads,and demanding the alives sacrifying their lives.....oh! my god everything made lord!
Lone is the swallow and expensive is the spring much labor is needed to make the sun swing At the wheels by thousands are needed the dead ones To shed their blood is necessity of the live ones. My God my Master builder you built me in the mountains My God my Master builder you enclosed by the sea

Greece will always and for all times will be the No. 1 in World no matter how full the bank account is. Without Greece all humans would live NOW in Year 1034 ....

@kingsammythecat Here is what I wrote one minute ago to a ytube Greek friend like you: Less than one month ago a beautiful, huge and (alas) expensive book was published in Italy with the poems of the major XXth century Greek poets, with the Greek text and the Italian translation. The comment is also rich. I obviously bought it immediately. Now I am reading it through. As you can see, we Italians never forget what your literature means to us, either ancient or modern.

@666Tripas Never give up. Nobody knows what the future will be like. The future of your country is in your hands. In the hands of the young, I mean. Who else could save her?
@pjtomasmw2 What I say is the plain truth, luckily for the all of us. As far as modern Greek poets are concerned, my favourite is Kavafis (I almost obliged my students to read it...), but Seferis is a great artist too. And I'm sure that among our-your contempoaries there must be some who write good or excellent poetry. Time will show.

@thalassa11 Ho capito benissimo, my dear friend. Your Italian is alright. But Time hasn't stopped. My hope is that both the Greek and Italian peoples wake up from their nightmarish present and shape a better future. And believe me: no other country has your Light, in every meaning of the word. Whenever I read your poets or your historians or philisophers or dramatists (and I keep reading them all) I am astonished.

Un grand moment pour la Grèce, avec le grand Mikis Theodorakis connu jusqu'en Belgique.

Now this is Greek music! Not like today's modern crap! Long live Greece!
Love Bithikotsis. I met him once at a concert in Athens. A true gentleman with a wonderful voice.
to hear his music is,like to fly high to the sun and to the glory and to the freedom,
moves me so much!

great song of freedom, a great people who got freedom after violence and blood... ζήτω ἡ Ἑλλάδα
Ενα το χελιδόνι κι η άνοιξη ακριβή
για να γυρίσει ο ήλιος θέλει δουλειά πολλή
Θέλει νεκροί χιλιάδες να 'ναι στους τροχούς
Θέλει κι οι ζωντανοί να δίνουν το αίμα τους.
Θε μου Πρωτομάστορα μ' έχτισες μέσα στα βουνά
Θε μου Πρωτομάστορα μ' έκλεισες μες στη θάλασσα!
Πάρθηκεν από μάγους το σώμα του Μαγιού
Το 'χουνε θάψει σ' ένα μνήμα του πέλαγου
σ' ένα βαθύ πηγάδι το 'χουνε κλειστό
μύρισε το σκοτάδι κι όλη η άβυσσος
Θε μου Πρωτομάστορα μέσα στίς πασχαλιές και Συ
Θε μου Πρωτομάστορα μύρισες την Ανάσταση

@@thebestmusicofthworld8249 Your greek-lish is TERRIBLE, go learn the language properly then post in Greek.
Awesome, this video shows the pasion of Theodorakis for music, and the inredible Grigoris!
I was fortunate enough to see him petros pandis etc
Powerful song amazing watching this sept 2021
Theodorakis is one awesome master at music. Livaneli + Theodorakis is super combination
Γειά σου αξέχαστε Μίκη. Μαζί σου πέθανε ένα τεράστιο κομμάτι της Ελλάδας.
A timeless anthem that spans all countries and all lifestyles. Thank you, Theodorakis! Love watching this vintage clip, too.
wonderfull great music theo dorakis thank you for the nice music Cobie
I will be waiting them eagerly ^_^
These old concerts give a more "vivid" feeling . More "revolutionary" if you get me :) Somehow reminds me of an era we had more hope in us for the future. And since now things look to be going to hell is good at least to be able to live again the "air" of these old eras.
My heart skips beats listening to this music....
What a beautiful music!! Cheers from Poland !!
whenever i listen to this wonderful greek music i am proud to have greek ancesters. Many greetings to greece and thanks for posting it.
I'm studying Greek language just to be able to understand their songs.
Just exactly like me
