SAMMOUTIS – ANEMOTIS FOR PAN FLUTE/ORCHESTRA SCORE

“In the ancient Greek world, goddess Athena was celebrated and often credited with various epithets. Anemotis is one of the rarer epithets ascribed to her, a description which was also location-specific rather than universal. Anemotis means the subduer of the winds (Anemos = wind). This is one of the main names that she was worshipped in the area (present day Messenia), and it is believed that the name was given after the Goddess had answered the calls and prayers of its citizens to subdue the storms that were destroying their city.” – Evis Sammoutis
