Musical promenades at the museums - The three Bs

As in previous years, important Athens museums will be hosting chamber music concerts featuring Athens State Orchestra ensembles. Fittingly, the first stop on this musical and museological venture will be the Acropolis Museum, where the dynamic and experienced Athens String Quartet will join forces with the distinguished clarinettist Spyros Mourikis to perform works by classical music's "Holy Trinity": Bach, Beethoven and Brahms.
