Mario Frangoulis

Crossover artist Mario Frangoulis breathes new life into works by composer Mikis Theodorakis at the Athens Concert Hall on Wednesday, May 9. The collaboration between the two began 20 years ago, when Theodorakis taught Frangoulis his landmark work "Axion Esti" for a performance conducted by the composer himself at the Herod Atticus Theater.

Contemporary folk singer Kalliopi Vetta and musician Haig Yazdjian, who blends traditional and modern sounds, teamed up several months back for appearances at different venues around Greece with a show that both highlights their individual careers and bridges their disparate elements.
