About Domna Samiou
Domna Samiou was a prominent Greek researcher and performer of Greek folk music. She received her first formal musical training from Simon Karas. For over half a century she collected, recorded, and performed traditional songs of Greece, around the world, appealing not only to the Greek diaspora, but also introducing non-Greek audiences to traditional Greek folk music. The National Music Section was busy recording them and, as a result, Domna became acquainted with all their various local musical styles.
