Catalan roots' music can perfectly describe the contribution of the Greeks, more than Greek music, because what the Greeks did was not to impose his strength and culture, but adapt to the culture of the place, offering their wisdom in several fields . The work of Eduard Toldrà Empúries is a free Sardana (traditional Catalan folk dance) for symphony orchestra inspired by this fact.
Also Empúries is a free Sardana because it is not tied to the formal structure of the traditional Catalan dance, with its short and long periods and prescriptive repetitions.
