Theia Anna & Theio Harry’s wedding 1968

Posted by meraki

Here it is – the video from Theia Anna and Theio Harry’s wedding! It’s mostly a lot of dancing at the reception, but the procession before the wedding is on there too. As noted below, the first 2 minutes are not very good (under exposed!) but after that it gets a lot better. I loved seeing the dancing at the end (very 60s looking, some of it :))

Theia Anna and Theio Harry's lovely wedding in Greece. The first 2 minutes are very grainy and underexposed (I did what little I could to fix it, but not much I can do). Don't worry, the quality gets much better 2 minutes in.
The film starts at the procession through the village, for some reason excludes the ceremony, and then has lots and LOTS of footage of the dancing afterwards.

Theio Harry’s chanting – 4 audio files

Theia Anna was kind to let me borrow some cassettes of Theio Harry chanting in church. I just finished digitizing these cassettes tapes and have the audio available for everyone in a few different formats.

There were 2 cassette tapes, I’ve digitized each side separately. You can listen to the audio on this page and download the files directly if you’d like to save them for yourself. Each file is about 65MB (encoded at 192 kbps) and about 45 minutes long.

I will upload the OGG-Vorbis versions of each file shortly, they are about 150MB each as they are lossless file formats, so it will take a little while to upload them all.

Please note that aside from some minor volume adjustments I have not modified the audio whatsoever. Since these are from a cassette, the audio starts and stops abruptly at the beginning and end of each file where the tape runs out. (I could have added fades but that seemed totally unnecessary.)
