Notes

Abstract:
Foni Komitissa 'Foni' usually denotes a melody to which different verses can be adapted; 'Komitissa' indicates a region in Cyprus, and this is where this folksong originated. Although the oud is a lute associated more with the Middle East, it is used here to accompany the vocalist with a drone and improvisatory interjections. ( English )
