Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall
Following in the wake of the successful staging of the Murderess, the opera by the great Greek composer George Koumentakis, the première of the Murderess Suite is sure to be an important musical event. The adventures of another archetypal fictional hero, Taras Bulba, provided the inspiration for Janácek’s exciting rhapsody. Both works are conducted by the eminent maestro, Loukas Karytinos, under whose baton Christina Pantelidou will grant us a rare opportunity to enjoy the cor anglais in a solo role.
