The Athens State Orchestra announces the Permanent Chamber Music Seminar for the academic year 2024-2025, including it at its educational actions. The Seminar is held and supervised by the cellist Angelos Liakakis and intends to initiate and strengthen young students into the condition of musical coexistence as well as the improvement in the chamber music repertoire.
The workshop is adressed to Musicians in strings, wind and piano, advanced students in conservatories (in a higher class), University students of Music departments, graduates as well as to existing chamber music ensembles.

• A total of seven classes are planned, each lasting one and a half hours. They will take place in November 9th, December 7th, January 11th, February 1st and 22nd, March 15th, and April 12th.

• The courses will take place in the rehearsal room of the Athens State Orchestra, in Megaron – the Athens Concert Hall and are open to the public.

• The final concert performed by the ensembles formed for the Seminars will be held in the Dimitris Mitropoulos room at Megaron – the Athens Concert Hall, in a date that will be announced shortly.

• In order to make the ensembles as functional and homogeneous as possible, participants may be asked to take part in a short, ten-minute audition, playing repertoire of their choice. If such auditions are considered necessary, they will take place in the latter half of October.

• The deadline for applications is the 18th of October 2024. The participation fee is 250 Euros per person for the whole seminar.
