From the days of the phonograph and the itinerant \u201cgramophone men\u201d of the early 20th century, to the 1960s, the era of \u201csingles\u201d and \u201cjukeboxes\u201d\u2026 And from there to long-playing vinyl records, compact discs and the internet.<\/p>\n

Our guide on this journey is Haris Alexiou, the leading singer of her generation and one of the most beloved figures in Greek culture, who has left an indelible mark on Greek music and on the history of Greek recording.<\/p>\n

Drawing on ERT\u2019s invaluable Archive, as well as on the testimony of people who lived through the golden years of the Greek record industry, the series traces the entire course of Greek song as it was engraved in the grooves of records.<\/p>\n

The documentary series \u201c100 Chronia Elliniki Diskografia\u201d is a journey through time, starring all those who bound their lives to Greek recording and who, with inspiration and passion, created the miracle of Greek music.<\/p>\n

On this journey, we want you as our fellow travellers.<\/p>\n
