One of the first Theodorakis concerts after the dictatorship in october 1974 was also filmed by german television. Here are the songs of that broadcast. O Antonis from the cycle Mauthausen (Kambanellis) sung by Maria Farantouri
Acılar, ezilmişlikler, isyan, savaş, özgürlük, mutluluk, yaşanmışlık, tek bir şarkı da tek bir ses olmak tüm bu duyguyu yaşatmak ancak büyük ustalık gerektirir.. Mikis theodorakis ışıklar içinde uyu
Güle güle büyük insan... Zülfü Livaneli ile olan konserini Ankara' da canlı izlemiştim... Her şey için, bize ve tüm insanlığa kattıkların için sonsuz teşekkürler....
Ήταν το 1972 όταν ένας αγαπητός φίλος που σπούδαζε στην Ιταλία στην Firenze (Φλωρεντία) μου έφερε μια κασέτα λάθρα από εκείνες τις μακρόστενες 8 Trak με το Μαουτχάουζεν. Δεν μπορούσα να το πιστέψω. την άκουγα για μέρες και έκλαιγα. ήμουν τότε 24 χρονών μόλις είχα απολυθεί από τον στρατό . αξέχαστα χρόνια και ηρωικά θα έλεγα.
@@maira5624 Δεν ξέρω αν ζητήσατε αυτό, ελπίζω να βοήθησα. Εκεί στη σκάλα την πλατιά στη σκάλα των δακρύων στο Βίνερ Γκράμπεν το βαθύ το λατομείο των θρήνων Εβραίοι κι αντάρτες περπατούν Εβραίοι κι αντάρτες πέφτουν, βράχο στη ράχη κουβαλούν βράχο σταυρό θανάτου. Εκεί ο Αντώνης τη φωνή φωνή, φωνή ακούει ω καμαράντ, ω καμαράντ βόηθα ν’ ανέβω τη σκάλα. Μα κει στη σκάλα την πλατιά και των δακρύων τη σκάλα τέτοια βοήθεια είναι βρισιά τέτοια σπλαχνιά είν’ κατάρα. Ο Εβραίος πέφτει στο σκαλί και κοκκινίζει η σκάλα κι εσύ λεβέντη μου έλα εδω βράχο διπλό κουβάλα. Παίρνω διπλό, παίρνω τριπλό μένα με λένε Αντώνη κι αν είσαι άντρας, έλα εδώ στο μαρμαρένιο αλώνι.
La música de Theodorakis vivirá por los siglos afortunadamente, entre la injusticia y el rencor, siempre encontraremos la fuerza de un genio como este gran hombre y la presencia de Maria, voz privilegiada, voz favorita de Theodorakis, què grandes momentos debieron de haber sido. 🇬🇷💙🇬🇷💙

"In World War II, Iakovos Kambanellis, a Greek author and poet, was imprisoned by the Nazis at the Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria where he witnessed the Nazi atrocities. Over 100,000 victims died Kambanellis agreed and gave the poems to his friend Mikis Theodorakis who was very receptive to the idea of composing the music for them. In "Antonis", the suffering of the imprisoned Jews doing hard labour, at the Mauthausen quarries is told, "mixed with a revolutionary and subversive mood". Antonis is a Greek prisoner who tries to help his Jewish friend carry a heavy boulder up an incline of 180 steps after his friend cannot work any longer and asks Antonis to help him. The boulders are used to pave the streets of Vienna. The lyrics state: "help is an insult. compassion a curse", indicating that helping another inmate is severely punished by the Nazi guards. However, Antonis helps his friend without hesitation.A Nazi guard intervenes and, to punish Antonis, instructs him to carry a boulder twice as heavy. Antonis then chooses an even heavier boulder than the one the Nazi guard showed him and carries it to the top instead. Antonis states his name in Greek: "Μένα με λένε Αντώνη, κι' αν είσαι άντρας έλα δω στο μαρμαρένιο αλώνι" ("My name is Antonis, and if you are a man come here on the marble threshing floor")."

absolutely fantastic! it's almost as good as the film itself! gotta love gavras, gotta love thodorakis! greetings to all the greek friends from turkey.
Lyrics: Iakovos Kambanellis Music: Mikis Theodorakis There in the broad steps The steps stained with tears There in the deep Wiener Graben The deep quarry of mourning Where the Jews and the rebels walk Where the Jews and the rebels fall Rocks they carry on their backs Rocks that promise them death. There Antonis hears a voice A voice, a voice he hears Oh comrade, oh comrade Help me to go up the steps. But there in the broad steps There in the steps of tears That kind of help is such a curse That kind of help is peril. The Jew falls to the ground And his blood soaks the steps And you, proud man come here Carry two loads of stones. Two I will take, and even three Me, they call me Antoni And if you’re a man, come here Down to this marble arena.
Es muy bella y poderoscesa música que escuchecen esa película en mi adolescencia, jamás olvide su melodía!! Una obra de arte x siempre que da fuerzas al espíritu!!
Yes, this composer is great, this music, also use by a singer in Afghanistan, and it's very popular, eventhough, this song chose to be a national anthem in Afghanistan, but because of foreigner composer the Afghanistan government refused, but it is still the top patriotic song in Afghanistan.thank you Miki's Theodorakis for Sach a nice compose.
@@SP-wv7ly The story on a prisoner in Mauthausen Concentration Camp in Austria in the 'Stairs of Death' pls see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mauthausen_concentration_camp and en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mauthausen_Trilogy for a more detailed explanation
@@leokapaslg I know, it is one of my favourite story from Kampanellis' book. I was wondering if the people on Afghanistan have the same song lyrics, and if they know the original story.

Thrylos65 YOU ARE SO RIGHT!!!!!! Its been two years since you have written this and speaks the truth even more today than it did 2 yeara ago...I left Greece in 1970 when I was 6. My dad's business went bankrupt with the Hounda in power and he fled to Canada - no English language skills, no education (a shoemaker by trade), very little money and a family with two young kids. But he had what you sp eloquently say below: Passion, Social Conscience and a desire to make his life better. And he did.
There Antonis to the voice the voice, voice he listens oh camarand, oh camarand help me to climb the stairs But there on the wide staircase that staircase of tears such a help is an insult such compassion can be a curse

Το 75 ο Μικης ηρθε στην Κυπρο. Η πρωτη συναυλια του ηταν για μενα μια εμπειρια ζωης, γραφτηκε πανω στη ψυχη μου, εδωσε λογια σε ενα κοσμο χαωδη. Ημουν 15 χρονων, ητσν ενα χρονο μετα το 74. Το ιδιο συναισθημστικο τσουναμι νοιθω καθε φορα που τους ακουω. Η Φαραντουρη ανεπαναληπτη.
@Onur Çevik işte bu yüzden devrim işte bu yüzden sosyalizm lanet olsun sizin gibi milleyiçilere yaşasın bütün halkların kardeşliği yaşasın hümanizm yaşasinnnn
@Onur Çevik ayrıca Kürdistan Mezopotamya gibi bir coğrafi ad , yavuz sultan selim Avrupa ya mektup yazarken ben Kürdistan'ın hükümdarı Osmanlı'nın yöneticisi Yavuz Sultan Selim im demis Yani okulda öğrendiğimiz tarih ile gerçek tarih arasında dağlar gibi fark var
I was with the Greeks during all those terrible years and I'm CERTAIN they will find the strength and the courage to pull themselves up and onwards once more..The spirit of Theodorakis and Farantouri CANNOT be gone....FIND IT WHEREVER IT'S HIDING ...
