Eleonora Zouganeli – On other pathways

Eleonora Zouganeli

“On other paths”

Monday 4 November

It all started from a thought of Lida Roumanis to travel through time with the help of songs and to choose small gems of Greek music that have lived through the decades.

The first stop was the theatre of Mikri Epidaurus as part of the Athens Festival at the end of July, which was packed to capacity both nights with smiling faces who sang along with us, were moved by our songs and I felt that we walked together along the paths of our chosen songs, listening to their generous applause at the end.

We then shared this mystique with the audience at Aeschylia festival and the highly charged venue of Elefsina.

I will continue to present my musical paths that make stops in many decades of Greek singing and will soon take to the stage of Pallas Theater on November 4^th.

Favorite songs that have carried away whole generations through my approach.

Memories, experiences, childhood excursions, songs I used to listen to alone or in the company of my friends. Melodies that wrote history and lyrics that wrote within us, edited and musically produced by the extraordinary Thomas Constantinou. With me on stage, wonderful solo musicians who give their color to my musical wanderings that start from the “Path” of Giorgos Mouzakis and lead us to the present day.
