Singing the end

With the kind support of the French Institute, Greece

Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall

The end of a Spanish princess's life, Adam and Eve's expulsion from the Garden of Eden, the Spring of a great composer: three composers, three works, three very different takes on the sense of an ending which conceals within it the hope of a new beginning. The artistic director of the Greek National Opera, Myron Michailidis, and the celebrated French cellist Emmanuelle Bertrand join forces in a musically demanding and profoundly emotive programme.
