GREECE

     By merely looking at the map of Greece, one immediately sees its double character: land and sea. A character reflected in every aspect of social and financial life, throughout the centuries of Greek history.

IRELAND

     Broadly speaking the repertoire of the Irish song tradition can be divided into five categories, songs in Irish in the sean
nos style, Anglo - Irish songs, macaronic songs (songs in both England and Irish), songs of British origin, and others.

Netherlands

     "θλα" was specially written for the opening of the sea songs festival. It is an electronic composition which digital soundscapes.

     The sea is always one of the most important elements in the Canary Islands and it ceaselessly shapes Canary Islands history. The first inhabitants of the Canary Islands were the guanches, a Berber race from Africa with light hair and features.
