Daniel Hope, Lukas Karytinos

Season Opening Concert

With the support of the British Council Greece

This season marks the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Athens State Orchestra. Over its eight decades of uninterrupted musical contributions as Greece’s primary symphonic ensemble, the ASO has dedicated itself to serving the masterpieces of the international and Greek symphonic repertoire. In this spirit, the season's opening concert includes a new work by the distinguished composer Dimitris Minakakis, along with two much-loved romantic works, by Bruch and Tchaikovsky, respectively. The soloist is the internationally renowned British violinist Daniel Hope, while the orchestra is conducted by its artistic director, Loukas Karytinos.
