"The ears are tickled by enchanting music performed by Tommy Kavounidis (music director, laouto and tzouras) Out of all the sensual delights, the sounds were the most transporting. Their strumming and drumming stir the heartstrings and evoke the feeling of a lovely Mediterranean island."
"The whole event is made more festive by a live band. Under the direction of Tommy Kavounidis (who plays laouto and tzouras), these skilled musicians underscore every moment with lovely Cypriot music. They even play us out onto 23rd Street at the show's conclusion."
"I don’t regret going, though. A four-piece band played music from Cyprus and Greece that I could have listened to all night, and we spent a brief but lovely part of the performance in the incense-scented back garden, under the moon and a tall, spreading tree."
