5 out of 5 stars Strange discovery.......2007-01-15

I was looking for the Odes by Vangelis and Irene Papa for the last 10 years and couldn't find it. It took me about a minute to find it in the Amazon pages. Thank you very much!

5 out of 5 stars ITHE BEST ALBUM OF VANGELIS EVER! It is beyond imagination... No need to understand Greek, this is truely TOP WORK & MUST HAVE!!.......2005-07-09

Someone commented this album ONLY 3 STARS, saying it is not easy flowing as the other works of Vangelis. I can only but disagree. I believe, this is a more PERSONAL work, more GREEK and to the ROOTS performance that perfectly matches Irene Papa and Vangeli. People who are from Greece would most likely chill with the flute performances, vocals and strong melodies Vangelis delivers. I feel transported back in ancient Greece, thing I never experienced before. It makes you mesmerize of Greek islands and a National spirit!

5 out of 5 stars Simple and wonderful!.......2005-02-24

Magic is the word that could describe this album! The simplicity of the melodies and the singing with the modern Vangelis'arrangements create a unique atmosphere. It is a Greek album with a particular modern color thanks to Vangelis and Irene Papas. Even if it was recorded more than 20 years ago sound so fresh and new! Highly recommended!

5 out of 5 stars INCREDIBLE COMBINATION.......2000-06-03

Vangelis at his best combined with the excellent voice and soul of Irini Pappa produced a piece of work worth having by all quality music lovers

2 out of 5 stars Anthems sung in Greek are interesting but not entertaining.......1999-09-19

The melodies have a patriotic/militaristic style which is jarring. Irene Papas has a strong, low voice but it is not musical. I find I have to work to listen through the tracks, unlike most other vangelis works which transport me.
