Nana at first captivated audiences in the tavernas and nightclubs of late fifties Athens, singing Greek folksongs and compositions written for her by the composer Manos Hadjidakis and lyricist Nikos Gatsos. Hartino to fengaraki (The Paper Moon) became a huge domestic hit and was followed by the celebrated Ta Pedia Tou Pirea (The Children Of Piraeus) Aka Never On a Sunday, from the film of the same name. Never On a Sunday sparked a huge interest in Greek music and culture and propelled Nana almost overnight onto the world stage. Through 1960-61, Nana built rapidly on her early promise. She flew to Berlin to record five songs for the Hadjidakis Gatos score of a film entitled, Greece, Land of Dreams and cut two German language versions that would constitute her first international hit, ‘The White Rose of Athens’. She then ventured to Paris to complete two EPs for her French mentor, Louis Hazan.
