Hi -
Couldn't resist an unanswered question - I believe that dahares is the
Greek word/version of the daire/doira/etc. (frame drum.)
I played a gig with Beth and Demetri last night here in Cambridge, MA -
they are great! (And Yianni is great, too!)
Beth has a solo CD, "Weaving the Worlds" - the music is new music, though.
If you want traditional music, go with the Ziyia' CDs.
However, aside from the fact that Beth is Jewish (incidentally, one side
of her family is Syrian, the other Ukrainian), and we did play the "Is it
Greek or is it klezmer?" Hasaposerviko, I don't know why we are
discussing this upcoming concert on this list....

Cohen plays with another sandouri player in the band ziyia: www.ziyia.com
