Reviewed 2002-08-09
The big, fat, Greek bits are nice. The “film score” bits aren’t that great. However, as we get so little Greek music in, I’d say by all means play any of the tracks with stars.

*1. Sweet, mid-tempo instrumental folk dance.
*2. Relaxed yet lively instrumental.
*3. Fun “wedding band” sound w/vocals.
4. Instrumental film-score interlude bit.
*5. Mid-tempo instrumental w/nice use of strings.
6. Starts like a Greek folk song, gets very orchestral.
7. More “ooh, look, the hero is having lunch” background music.
8. Mid-eastern influenced instrumental. Just ok.
9. Nostalgic moment orchestral punctuation.
10. Reflective moment orchestral punctuation.
11. Emotional moment orchestral punctuation.
12. Romantic moment orchestral punctuation.
13. Poignant moment orchestral punctuation.
*14. Smarmy 50s prom slow dance. High kitsch factor.
15. Generic emotion orchestral punctuation.
