This CD has a very Oriental sound, unsurprisingly. Instruments used include the outi, violin, xylophone, cello, mandolin, guitar, harmonica, piano, clarinet, mandola, santouri and kanonaki. There's not a bouzouki on it, as far as I can tell. Lots of the tunes seem somehow very familiar after two Hydra conferences!
The 36 page booklet is mainly in Greek, with a shorter English section at the back.
