Elegy of the Uprooting is a live double album by Greek composer Eleni Karaindrou recorded with Camerata Orchestra and the ERT Choir conducted by Alexandros Myrat at the Megaron in Athens on March 27, 2005 and released on the ECM New Series the following year.

Reception

The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 5 stars stating "Karaindrou is a giant. In her quiet way she towers over more popular figures, simply by digging through the historical, cultural, and musical past, through the images brought forth by them, and by the poetics of the human heart. There is no hollow sentimentality in this work. In fact, it is stripped of that artifice to reach the purity of emotion, presented by a composer and musicians who understand restraint, allowing the story presented here to reveal itself, not by narrative so much as by context and the honesty of the music itself. Without doubt, this is the modern classical recording of 2006 and will go down as a classic in the field." Шаблон:Album ratings
