I've been
asked to provide a CV. Well, I'm a former architect, then a publisher, now
working for a big Internet company. Who cares about that, though, at a Rebetika
conference? Let's better say I'm not a musicologist, nor an historian or a
sociologist. Just a French amateur musician and lover of Greece, learning
tzouras and outi.
It
happened that I wrote a small article about "the Rebetiko figures"
(in Musica Falsa), and ended up present Rebetiko music on
France-Culture, a French national radio station. I'm working now on a project to
create a Rebetiko database combined with a juke-box, which I would like to
"push online".
My Greek
friends call me "The Fundamentalist". This is in fact true. I can
only afford old rebetika, original recordings, trichordo bouzouki and minor
modes. That's why I created the dadaistic "Radical Movement for Rebetiko
Dechiotification and Bouzouki Detetrachordization"
(www.dechiotification.org).
