“Greece on Tour” pays tribute to Mikis Theodorakis with an impressive homage in the Vienna Konzerthaus.

 

In 2012 the composer was present together with Maria Farantouri at his last concert in the Vienna Konzerthaus. Now a special concert is taking place in honor of the composer. Maria Farantouri, an outstanding interpreter of Theodorakis’ works, delights the audience with her powerful and sensitive voice. To this day she is THE Greek Theodorakis interpreter. Now more than ever, her concerts are a sign that Theodorakis’ music is timeless and unforgettable. When Maria sings, the composer is present. Together with the renowned Cypriot artist Alkinoos Ioannidis, the young newcomer Alkyone and first-class instrumentalists, Farantouri will perform songs from all of Mikis Theodorakis’ creative phases, including the famous Mauthausen cycle.

 

Experience the unforgettable music of the greatest Greek composer Mikis Theodorakis in the breathtaking setting of the Vienna Konzerthaus. An initiative of Alexandros Karozas, colleague and close friend of Mikis Theodorakis, who produced many of his concerts and music during the composer’s lifetime.
