Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall

Loneliness is almost always an inevitable condition for great men, both real and imaginary. This was definitely the case with the distant Beethoven or the anonymous hero of Strauss’s vision. In each case, the music outlines and expresses their personalities, thoughts and actions with the intense timbres, vigour and epic magnificence they warrant.
