He was a constant and authoritative presence in the chaotic Greek scene of the latter half of the 20th century, but was also active in the movie business.

This CD presents a collection of his solo piano music, spanning a period from 1947 to 1971. Although he took some classes at the Athens Conservatory, he was largely self-taught. Nevertheless, his music is well constructed and compelling. His language is mainly derived from folk sources, primarily dance, with vibrant rhythms and interesting harmonic flashes elevating the material from banality. Juilliard-trained Greek pianist Kara presents the music with delightful energy and color. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cspan style=\"font-weight:bold\"\u003eFANFARE: Peter Burwasser \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Naxos","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":49682322882840,"sku":"747313095773","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/4346\/3192\/files\/1450889.jpg?v=1777574766","url":"https:\/\/hbdirect.com\/products\/hadjidakis-m-piano-works-for-a-little-white-seashell","provider":"HBDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
