Opening concert of the artistic period 2020-2021
The opening piece of this artistic season will be Beethoven's Fifth Symphony, a symphony that marked the evolution of symphonic music and has been the symbol of the genuine passion and the most cataclysmic dramatism. But, even Beethoven's lesser-known works offer up real beauty and splendour to be discovered—and this is most certainly the case with the Name Day (Namensfeier) Overture. On the other hand, Tchaikovsky First Piano Concerto is anything but lesser-known. One of the most popular works in the symphonic repertoire, it will performed on this occasion by the celebrated soloist, Fil Liotis.
Concert at Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Centre 13.09.2020
Faithful to our autumnal get-together in the Garden of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Centre, we turn our attention to the music of the internationally beloved Italian composer, Ennio Morricone, who recently passed away. Morricone had a gift for melody, but he went beyond that, extending the expressive potential of film music like few others and giving us masterful works that are as moving in the concert hall as they are in the cinema auditorium. The concert will feature music which the composer wrote between the Sixties and 2016.
Visitors are advised to bring insect repellent and a mat, or a blanket for sitting on the ground.
