Internationally renowned guitar soloist Elena Papandreou has always stood out for her spontaneous lyricism and the brilliant virtuosity of her performances, which have won her important awards and successful appearances in large major concert halls around the world. This time, the sensitivity of her playing meets this time the sensitivity of the music of Manos Hadjidakis, as reflected in some of his most loved and popular songs, which will be heard in imaginative adaptations by Roland Duens and Orestis Kalampalikis. Tonight’s wonderful recital is complemented by a work by Bach and a prelude by Cuban composer Leo Brower, written especially for the soloist.
