Smyrna in the 19th century became the emblem of modernization and modernity for the Ottoman Empire, in all areas of social life and creative expression.
The general musical activity that developed in the region is aesthetically and formally marked by the characteristics of stylistic eclecticism and hybridity. This also applies to Church music, as a distinct modern idiom will emerge in the area, which will provoke tensions and reactions from the conservative environments of the City.
However, this will not hinder the establishment and further popularity of the "Smyrnian style" not only in the broader region but also in the Greek territory, especially after the events of 1922 and the population exchange.
The central theme of the book primarily revolves around the attempt to trace and evaluate the way in which the distinctive stylistic current of Smyrna was integrated into the broader musical reality of the time, simultaneously playing an undoubtedly modernizing role within specific fields, such as those of compositional creation, pedagogy, publishing production, theoretical reflection, etc.
The study of historical sources combined with the willingness to interpret the historical-social context of the time helped highlight the most distinctive characteristics that defined the ideological-aesthetic physiognomy of this movement, while also ensuring its historical independence.
