Musical promenades at the Museums – Romantic pages for violin and piano

Mon. 15 April 2019 20:30

The Benaki Museum - Nikos Hadjikyriakos-Ghika Gallery

The distinguished violinist Dimitris Semsis, the Athens State Orchestra's concertmaster, joins the pianist Dimitra Mantzouratou for a demanding and intensely romantic program. The two main features—Brahms' Second Sonata and the Frank sonata—are both works of their respective composers' maturity which, thanks to their inestimable beauty, now enjoy pride of place in the repertoire for violin and piano.

19:30, Guided tour in the N.H. Gikas's house and workshop by Ioanna Moraiti, Curator.
