Love and destiny

Fri. 31 January 2014 20:30

Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall

The Polish conductor Michal Nesterowicz, a rising star on the international music scene, makes his début with the Athens State Orchestra. His interpretations of the work of the distinguished composer Giorgos Zervos and, of course, his reading of Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony, which echoes the dramatic clash of Man and Fate, are eagerly anticipated. The evening’s soloist, Athens State Orchestra’s principal harpist, Georgia Xagara, gives us the chance to enjoy the ethereal, romantic sound of the harp “up close”.
