The violin experience!
"We recently had Manolis perform at our wedding in Kos in June 2026. From first contact with him to the big day he kept in touch and was happy to send us a video of himself performing the song we requested for the ceremony to make sure we were happy. His performance on the day was excellent, every piece of music was fantastic and timed to perfection. The guests all commented how good he was and how wonderful it was to have at a wedding. We would highly recommend Manolis and are grateful to him for making our day such a special occasion."
Maria Ploumi
"Maria Ploumi is an exceptional laouto player and singer, seamlessly blending traditional Greek music with contemporary influences. Her recent performance with Chrysoula K. & Púrpura was a masterclass in musicality and emotion. With her expressive laouto playing and warm vocals, Ploumi added depth and texture to a diverse repertoire spanning Greece, Argentina, Portugal, Armenia, and Italy.
The band’s unique instrumentation—kanun, flute, cello, and laouto—created a rich, immersive soundscape, with Ploumi’s precision and artistry standing out as a highlight. Her synergy with lead singer Chrysoula Kechagioglou and the rest of the ensemble was remarkable, delivering a performance that was both technically impressive and deeply moving.
Maria Ploumi’s ability to bridge musical traditions makes her a standout artist in today’s world music scene. Whether leading with her laouto or harmonizing in song, she brings an authenticity and passion that captivates audiences."

Her voice is absolutely stunning, and she created such a warm and magical atmosphere throughout the night. She was professional, punctual, and very easy to work with.
