The Athens State Orchestra and the Department of Music Studies of the School of Philosophy
The collaboration between the Athens State Orchestra and the Department of Music at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens will be continuing this year at the undergraduate level. Following a proposal made by the Director of the Music Department, Dr Anastasia Georgaki, the Senate consented to the teaching programme with a view to students acquiring an artistic specialization in orchestral instruments. The teaching of the instruments is undertaken by members of the ASO in the capacity of visiting professors. This commendable initiative helps to raise the level of music education in Greece, while actively strengthening the link between music studies and orchestral performance. At the same time, selected students participate in the lectures that precede Athens State Orchestra concerts at the Athens Concert Hall.
