"Hymn to Aphrodite" for alto voice and ancient Greek varvitos op.93 (2002) is a setting on the ancient Greek prototype of a hymn to Aphrodite by Appho, the ancient Greek poetess. The rhythmic elaboration follows the ancient metric prosody of the verses in a modal scale environment.
The work is dedicated to Evangelia Thalassini (Director of the stage - Actress - Researcher of Ancient Greek Music) who provided the idea and the appropriate information (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3onZPLXt_kw&list=PL9dv-8qOvs--Hv3b7zzbdPvz-VU2ZNU8y&index=2) for the metric prosody of the ancient text.
