A French scented partnership with the Onassis Cultural Centre (I)

Mon. 17 February 2014 20:30


The concert, which inaugurates the collaboration between the Athens State Orchestra and the Onassis Cultural Centre, has twin axes: the musical avant-garde in early 20th- and 21st-century France respectively. Two classic masterpieces of Modernism by Stravinsky and Ravel engage in a dialogue with contemporary avant-garde creations by the award-winning Greek composer, Nicolas Tzortzis, and his French colleague, Raphaël Cendo.
