Psarantonis (Greece)

He has devoted his life to mastering the Cretan lyra, a bewitching bowed string instrument of medieval origins. Now in his 70s, Psarantonis is more exciting than ever, a virtuoso who has transformed Cretan musical traditions. He performs with his son George Xylouris on lute and Dirty Three drummer Jim White.
