14 Original Sirtaki

Sirtaki - dance, created in 1964 for the film "Zorba the Greek", is not a traditional Greek dance, but represents a combination of slow and fast versions of hasapiko - an ancient warrior dance. The dance sirtaki, as well as the music written for it by the Greek composer Mikis Theodorakis, is sometimes called "Zorba's Dance". The choreographer of the film and, in particular, the dance of Zorba and Basil in the final scene, was Yorgos Provias. The album 14 Original Sirtaki features "Zorba's Dance" performed by Yorgos Zabetas, a renowned bouzouki player, and several alternative songs to dance to.
