Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall

The new year gala is a well-established and expected concert that for many years has been adding sparkle to New Year celebrations. As always, also this year the Athens State Orchestra and the Athens Megaron collaborate and propose to the musicophile audience of Athens an inspired programme, focused on music of our times, distinguished for its melodic charm and its direct, broad impact. Under the baton of the reputed conductor Alexandre Myrat, well-known Greek soloists offer small but impressive samples of their talent, under the same umbrella of brilliant mastery and ... a highly celebrating spirit!
