Ancient songs and melodies from across the Greek world alternate in a rhythmic and mystical manner, engaging in a dialogue with modern melodies inspired by our traditional folk music. Past and present coexist, serving as a reminder that tradition is not a museum relic, but a living and active part of our daily lives.
Vasiliki Karakosta invites and unites leading musicians and singers from different generations and regions, composing a unique gathering for the first time.
The Dance Department of the Cultural Society of Athens University Students will participate with a performance of traditional Greek dances and folk customs. As well as the Music School of Athens.
