All but one of her early piano pieces are recent, and offer a taste of the maturation of her style, which blends Greek folk music with contemporary music. The sound takes flight with natural breathing. String Quartet No. 2 captures the minimalism of nature. Imagine the sound of crickets chirping in a distant Greek forest. The String Quartet No. 1, titled \"Israel,\" is music inspired by the human face, and the two piano quintets, interspersed with a short piano piece written for a friend's birthday, are wondrous, nostalgic sounding music.The strange mixture of 4\/5 time-based melodies, minimalism, and classical phrases creates a unique world. Gruzui is known for his extensive use of folk instruments, but here he seems to be questioning his own worthiness by using only orthodox instruments.
