Host

We are pleased to invite you to an evening of Greek chamber music. Looking as far back as the Odyssey, the Greeks have been telling their stories of long-lost time and place through song and verse. The Greek Chamber Music Project greekchambermusic.com lovingly captures this deeply Hellenic experience in Sky, Send Me a Bird. GCMP curates pieces by Greek composers whose distant homelands and lost loves are kept aflame through their music.

Longtime collaborators Ellie Falaris Ganelin (flute) and Mary-Victoria Voutsas (voice and piano) lend their unique voices to this tender playlist incorporating their own compositions and arrangements to the mix. This full-length concert features the music of legends Manos Hadjidakis and Mikis Theodorakis, as well as living composers Christos Hatzis, Evangelos Kokkoris, and Michael Malis.
