Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall
As painful as the destruction of Asia Minor’s Greek civilization was a century ago, the treasures of its tradition will live on for ever in our collective national memory. Of course, this inexhaustible Greek tradition inspired outstanding symphonic works by important Greek composers, including Manolis Kalomiris (who was born in Smyrna), Petros Petridis, Constantinos Kydoniatis, and our contemporary, the prolific Dimitris Marangopoulos. The maestro Miltos Logiadis will take the ASO and its audience on a fascinating musical journey to the point where the traditional and the scholarly, the national and the personal, meet.
19:30, free introductory speech by Nikos Laaris for ticket holders
