Musical promenades at the Museums X – Dancing

Mon. 23 April 2018 17:00

National Archaeological Museum of Athens
Inner Garden

We, five friends, decided to travel. To take our music with us and to extend it in time. Short term and long term. And to take you with us. Kavafis says that “when you dance, you write on Earth what your soul wants to tell”. On the other side, music talks to the soul and raises spirit and emotion. Hence, we married time to dance and we invite you in this multidimensional journey.
