The album "Τραγούδια Του Χωρισμού 1932 1939" or "Parting Songs 1932 1939" is a compilation of various artists from Greece who sang songs about separation, heartbreak, and loss during the tumultuous years of 1932-1939. The album features 20 tracks, each with its own unique style and emotion.
The album starts with a hauntingly beautiful song by Roza Eskenazi, "Μες την καρδιά μου βαρούνε," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The tracks that follow are equally moving, with standout performances by Stellakis Perpiniadis, Rita Abatzi, and Markos Vamvakaris, among others.
One of the most impressive aspects of this album is the variety of styles and genres represented. From the traditional sounds of rebetiko to the more modern sounds of laika, the album showcases the diverse musical landscape of Greece during this period.
