With its eyes set on contemporary Greek creativity, Ergon Ensemble returns to Megaron Online with the second concert entitled “The return of the Diaspora”. Ergon, which specialises in 20th and 21st century music, aims to introduce contemporary composers of Greek descent or Greek composers that are active abroad. In this joint Megaron and Ergon endeavour, members of the Ensemble will interpret the works of 16 composers in 4 concerts, the programmes of which have been assembled with geographic instead of aesthetic criteria, so that the special characteristics of each creation and the different approach of each composer becomes clear to the audience.
