The classical magic
Fri. 29 March 2019 20:30
Megaron – The Athens Concert Hall
Christos Lambrakis Hall
If we accept that, in music, the classical is associated with clarity of form, intellectual depth and an aversion to expressive excess, then all three works in this concert clearly reflect classical beauty at its most elevated, embodying the above qualities equally despite having been composed in different eras. The soloist is the ASO's lead and leading bassoonist, Alexandros Oikonomou.
