Musical Instruments

Over time, and with hours of work on the wood, listening, correcting, and listening again, a craftsman progresses in his workshop, and a collection of unique stories grows, each one known to him before its birth from the trunk.

Chronis Stivaktakis was born in Voriza to honest farmers, from whom he inherited the love for his homeland, decency and ethos. He experienced all the beauties of the Cretan countryside, our unique customs and traditions, the chivalry, the hospitality, the joys and sorrows of the "leventoγέννα", which he depicts in the most expressive way in his excellent verses.

They call the village where he was born Voriza
In the wild holly tree, raised by the earth
He walked on the honored lands and on the rust
And his parents gave him humanity and he held it
There he heard about chieftains, about the men of the armed
there about his great-grandfather, Captain Lerato
There he heard the sweet melodies of the old man Psiloritis
there he lived his whole life as a small boy in Crete
There he learned his letters in his childhood
there he lived the beauties of the harvest and in the threshing floors
he entered the Castle and sat down to his studies
and he lives with his wife and two children.
