Often as part of traditional song collections, among the wedding songs and work songs and songs about heroes etc. I am not aware of a specific myroloja collection, though I 'd bet money there are some. I 'll ask some contacts of mine. |

The Epirus ones are my personal favourites. There is a CD by Petroloulas Halkias, called "Moirologia kai gyrismata" (MUS 029426). You can order it here. |
