Omar Faruk Tekbilek & His Ensemble

The internationally acclaimed artist Omar Faruk Tekbilek & His Ensemble will perform in Athens on Monday, May 19, at the Pallas Theatre for a unique, one-night-only concert.
Renowned as both a peacemaker and virtuoso, Omar Faruk Tekbilek is one of the most esteemed and influential musicians of the Middle East. His decades-long career transcends borders, blending Sufism, Middle Eastern folk traditions, and contemporary world music. His deeply spiritual and timeless sound creates a powerful bridge between East and West.
In October 2016, he had the honor of meeting legendary Greek composer Mikis Theodorakis, who personally endorsed his interpretations of his works. A portion of the concert will pay tribute to Theodorakis, reflecting the profound personal and artistic connection they shared.
Joining Tekbilek on stage is the exceptional Natassa Bofiliou, known for her distinctive voice and commanding presence. One of the most beloved vocalists of her generation, Bofiliou will bring emotional depth and passion to this special evening. The concert will also feature a string quartet, further enriching the musical experience
