Encyclopedia > Chasapiko

Hasapiko (Hassapiko, Hasápikos, Chasápikos, Khasápikos, Hasapico) is a Greek traditional dance. The name comes from the word "butcher" (χασάπης, hasapis, of Turkish origin), i.e., it is "butcher's dance", Makellarikos horos, μακελάρηκός χορός in "pure Greek".


It served as a base for Sirtaki.

Zeibekiko, chasapiko, ballads - and all these joined together with music which do not simply acts as bridge in-between two songs but also refer to the well-known sound of Nikoloudis.
The arrangement is simple, letting the voice speak, giving to the voice the place of honour, as it should do.
