With his three albums, “16 Rebetiko Guitar Songs”, “Esperanto” and the recent “America”, Mystakidis proves that Rebetiko is a universal musical language.
A great kind of folk art, which slowly occupies the place it deserves in the world of music. For this reason, the UNESCO has recently included rebetika in the List of Cultural Heritage.
Recently, D. Mistakidis’s album AMERIKA was released, including Rebetiko songs that were played live in the United States almost a century ago.
