Σπύρος Σαμάρας (1861-1917). Ο μεγάλος αδικημένος της έντεχνης ελληνικής μουσικής. Δοκιμή βιογραφίας (Spyros Samaras (1861-1917). The great wronged man of Greek art music. An attempt at a biography)

This volume constitutes a major contribution to the study of the life and work of the great composer from Corfu. The scholar focuses on Samaras’s artistic output and career, yet also delineates the historical continuity of Ionian Island traditions of lyric theatre and traces its links to European and mainly Italian music. The volume is completed by a detailed list of performances of his lyric works; extensive quotes from critics; as well as the artist’s discography, drawn up by Stathis Arfanis.
