MUSICOLOGY

Farya Faraji is an Iranian Canadian music theorist who travels the world to analyze different indigenous or ancient music scores and tunes and brings them to life. This quest brought him to Greece a few years ago. He relegated the bouzouki to a mere Italian/Ionian novelty not worthy of his time (watch "Why Does Greek Music Sound Eastern? - And Why It's a Dumb Question" link). He teaches us about the chromatic mode, microtonality, enharmonics and other interesting musical phenomena you did not know even existed. Enjoy!
