Martha Argerich and Theodosia Ntokou

Conducted by Stefanos Tsialis, the Athens State Orchestra will present a spellbinding performance at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus. Martha Argerich, a living legend of the piano will be joined by her student and rising piano star Theodosia Ntokou to perform Francis Poulenc’s Concerto for Two Pianos. Teacher and student will also join forces to perform Camille Saint-Saëns’ popular piece The Carnival of the Animals (Le carnaval des animaux). Argerich’s daughter, the French actress Annie Dutoit, will act out the narrative interludes (with Greek surtitles).
The performance will also include Cesar Franck's Symphony in D Minor and excerpts of Manos Hadjidakis' The Cursed Serpent, performed by Argerich together with special guest Dora Bakopoulou.
