Ending concert for the Brasses’ Atelier of the Athens State Orchestra

Mon. 30 April 2018 19:30

Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Dimitris Mitropoulos Hall

In an absolutely celebrating ambience, the Athens State Orchestra ends the -sixth in a row- stage of the Brasses’ Atelier of the Athens State Orchestra with the established yearly ending concert.
During the academic year 2017-2018, the Atelier’s members had the chance to creatively collaborate with the Brass family’s experienced and acknowledged musicians of the Athens State Orchestra, to get educated by them and to enjoy for one more year the pleasure of musical cooperation through teamwork and familiarization with the orchestral repertoire.
It is this mood exactly that they aim to transfer to the audience of their concert, joining their forces in pieces of chamber music for brasses.

Music of Antonio Vivaldi, Camille Saint-Saens, Henry Purcell and John Williams.
