The project ldquo;Medearsquo;s suiterdquo; was written initially as soundtrack to the eponymous work of Jean Anouilh (from ancient tragedy); which was staged by an amateur troupe of University students.I was captivated by the entire playrsquo;s plot and mentally I traveled to the ancient; mythical; heroic times. I let myself free to become ecstatic; to imagine; to see the images and hear the sounds and beats of this exciting tragedy.So after an introduction; I imagined DANCE before lovemaking; THE LOVEMAKING; the EXCITEMENT; the COMPLAINT; the relaxation-LULLABI; the mysterious calm of the Night; the colors and sounds of DAWN and THE EPILOGUE. In my mind were the sounds of PERPETUAL GREECE; as I subjectively imagined them. That is why in the same book; on the same disc; I wanted to include my sonata titled rsquo;GREEK SONATArdquo;; as a guide to which I had again the Greek musical tradition.I chose violin and guitar; because their sounds were the most suited for these projects in my imagination.
