Ideas, persons, myths and incidents of the classical antiquity have never stopped, until today, to stimulate the artists’ thought and fantasy. The distinct conductor (and one of the principal violins of the Athens State Orchestra), Nikos Haliassas, recompiles and re-creates works of distinct- and less known- Greek composers of the past and the present, on a common ground inspired by the ancient world. However, the programme’s jewel is the “Corinth Concerto” for guitar of the legendary Cuban guitarist and composer, Leo Brouwer, performed by the distinct soloist, Dimitris Soukaras.
