Outline of Final Research Achievements

Urban Greek music "Rembetiko" has Ottoman and Southern Slavic elements. Though some documents suggest the possibility of musical interactions among Greeks, Muslims and Jews in Thessaloniki, Sephardic Rembetiko singers, such as Roza Eskenazi, did not record songs in Ladino.
After immigration into the United States, Greeks shared a common, though not large, repertoire of tunes with Ashkenazim. This is not because they collaborated on their own will beyond ethnic borders, but rather because record companies developed multinational marketing, and both sides exchanged musicians for concerts and recordings when needed.
