The album PianOLAternA Vol.2,  contains 7 covers of songs that belong to the category known as cafe aman songs of the 78rpm recordings of the beginning of the 20th century. All the songs are arranged for piano and voice, in a quest of finding the way that the piano can  perform the eastern mediterranean musical modal system on the greekspeaking repertoire.
