The bouzouki is the instrument which gives Greek popular music or laike moussike its peculiar character and vitality. From humble beginnings in the early 1920s it has achieved popularity and distinction in the cinema, theatre, ballet, the modern Greek love song, and even in the comedies of Aristophanes.
GEORGE ANGELL traces the recent history of the bouzouki and gives examples of the development of laike moussike in the hands of talented Greek composers and poets
