Ritsos and Theodorakis, "Epitaphios"



From Kathimerini (in English) - Yiannis Ritsos’s ‘Epitaphios,’ a song that both united and divided Greeks, by Iota Sykka:

"It’s been 79 years since Ritsos wrote “Epitaphios” in just four days. But “Epitaphios” as melodized by Theodorakis is still one of the greatest revolutions that ever happened in Greek music".
