Editor's note

Haris Alexiou, the voice of modern Greek song

A singer who shaped Greek popular music for decades, from dramatic tangos to intimate folk.

Start with 'To Tango Tis Nefelis' for that dramatic flair, then try 'Panselinos' for something quieter. Those two songs frame what she does best.

Her 1979 album '12 Laïka Tragoudia' and 1981's 'Ta Tragoudia Mou' became staples of Greek popular music. Songs like 'To Tango Tis Nefelis' and 'Panselinos' show her range, from dramatic tango arrangements to more intimate folk settings. She's recorded over 30 albums, working with composers like Manos Hadjidakis and Mikis Theodorakis.

Born in 1950, she moved to Athens at 15 to study classical piano and singing. Her debut album came out in 1970, and by the late 1970s she was established with albums like '12 Laïka Tragoudia' and 'Ta Tragoudia Mou'.
