NANA MOUSKOURI “I WILL TELL YOU A MYTH”

Odeon of Herodes Atticus, Thursday 5 July 2018, 9:00 pm

The International Greek singer Nana Mouskouri returns to the Odeon of Herodes Atticus with a unique concert as part of her world tour in Europe, America and Canada.

Nana Mouskouri started from Greece 60 years ago, carrying in her musical "luggage" the songs of Nikos Gatsos and Manos Hatzidakis. With her voice she tοοκ Greek music to the most important theaters in the world, from the Paris Opera, the Royal Albert Hall in London and the Berlin Philharmonic to the Lincoln Center in New York, the Sydney Opera House and the Teatro Monumental in Chile.

With more than 10,000 performances all over the world, she has come back to Herodion, this time to sing her "Myth". The myth that started with a Paper Moon and eventually realised everything she had dreamed of. The myth that has linked her forever with Manos Hatzidakis, Nikos Gatsos and Melina Merkouri, who were her musical "lighthouses" in the seas of the world. Their "presence" in the concert will therefore be more noticeable, as these songs remain for her the most precious belongings.

Part of the concert's earnings will be donated to the Association of Friends of Children with Cancer "Elpida", which the international performer has been aiding since the first year of its creation in 1990

The concert is under the auspices of the President of the Hellenic Republic, H.E. Mr Prokopios Pavlopoulos.
