Ross Daly

Ireland-to-Greece transplant Ross Daly - founder of the Labyrinth Musical Workshop on Crete - is returning to Athens with his ensemble and a few special guests for a fresh run of shows at the Half Note (halfnote.gr) following sold-out performances last November.

Ireland-to-Greece transplant Ross Daly has been conducting master classes out of a restored manor house in Crete for the past 17 years, bringing the sounds and musical styles of the Middle East, the Balkans, India and Central Asia to budding musicians, with the assistance of guest teachers.

Just under a month before European Parliament elections, Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras is on Monday to unveil the 42 candidates of his leftist SYRIZA for the polls.

The Park Life series of concerts continues at the Stavros Niarchos Park on Saturday, September 16, with performances by the Ross Daly Quintet and the Martha Mavroidi Trio. Ross Daly and his four bandmates will take the stage at 8 p.m.
