Where are we and where are we going with music creation in our country in the 21st century? What are the achievements, the promising messages, the difficulties and the new paths that are opening up in front of us in the coming years? Two discussions in a relaxed atmosphere, with the academic community present but not only, open to the public interested in music and contemporary art.

ABOUT THE TRIBUTE TO CONTEMPORARY MUSIC

Who is afraid of contemporary music?

If there is one thing that characterizes musical creation in the 21st century, it is a profound sense of freedom. Nowadays, every artist is called upon to form a personal sonic identity from the outset, often leaving behind familiar compositional techniques and exploring original instrumental textures, new timbres or innovative technologies. The result is a vibrant, dynamic musical scene, a meeting point of different currents and a springboard for new forms of artistic expression. From such a bustling and creative panoply, today’s bona fide listener has no choice but to choose the sounds that travel with him. After all, who (should) be afraid of contemporary music? Probably no one.

A weekend for contemporary music

The Megaron, in collaboration with the Department of Music Studies and the Department of Digital Arts and Film at the Athens University of Music and Performing Arts, invites the public to a two-day panorama of contemporary music where they will have the opportunity to get a taste of Greek music creation today.
