An ancient sound, common to many cultures, repetitive, sometimes annoying: the sound of work. A labor that, in traditional Greek society, was among the heaviest for women, as the couplet reminds us: \u201cEmbroidery is a joy, the spinning wheel is a stroll \/ but the loom is slavery, slavery indeed.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From ancient Egypt to Konitsa, there are many references to women who sang while weaving; by contrast, there are very few references to songs composed by the weavers themselves. Usually, these are songs written from the perspective of someone who isn\u2019t weaving: the observer, the romantic, the groom, the musician, him, him, him. So the time has come for the loom and the female weaver to take center stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tapestry, which will take shape during the performance, will be raffled off at the end to a member of the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.phoebevlassis.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.phoebevlassis.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Musician Phoebe Vlassis lived in New Orleans for 13 years, where she learned to weave.
