He was born in 1853 in Ermoupolis\, Syros and died in 1919 in Neo Faliro. An excellent journalist of metrical satire of the events of the time\, at the age of 30 he published the metrical weekly satirical newspaper ‘O Romios’\, which was published almost until his death. He also wrote several metrical comedies. Through his work he commented on everyday life\, the people and the rulers\, criticising the evils of the times. \nA few words about Paschalis Tonios: \nPaschalis Tonios made his debut as a musician and performer alongside great Greek composers\, while Manos Hadjidakis encouraged him to engage in composition\, for which he was awarded a prize at the Ithaca Festival. His repertoire as a performer includes almost the entire modern art music tradition. His works have been performed both in Greece and abroad in venues such as the Herodeion\, the Athens Concert Hall\, the Historical Museum of the Old Parliament\, and he has collaborated with artists such as Mikis Theodorakis\, Milva\, Giorgos Dalaras\, Mimis Plessas and others. \n\n\n\nA few words about METAdrasi: \nMETAdrasi is a Civil Society Organization\, which was founded in 2010 with the primary purpose of covering long-term gaps in the reception and integration of refugees and migrants in Greece.

SUMMARY:Notre Dame de Paris by Victor Hugo at the Pallas Theater
DESCRIPTION:Season: 2018-2019\nStart: 3 November 2018\nEnd: 17 March 2019\nPerformance title: Notre Dame de Paris\n\n\nOne of the masterpieces of world literature\, “Notre Dame de Paris” by Victor Hugo\, is presented this year’s 2018-19 theatre season at the Pallas Theater. \nA super production that continues the great success of last year’s “Don Quixote”\, which was attended by over 100 thousand spectators. The same creative team of “Don Quixote” is collaborating on “Notre Dame” and aspires to offer audiences a show equally popular for the whole family. “Notre Dame de Paris” is being staged by Sophia Spyratou\, who in recent years has given us children’s shows that have won the admiration and trust of both young and old audiences alike\, such as: “Don Quixote”\, “Theseus and Ariadne on Bull Island”\, “Jason and the Golden Fleece”\, etc. The poet Stratis Paschalis is the author of the adapted classical text\, the original music is by Nikos Kipourgis\, the lighting is by Lefteris Pavlopoulos\, the sets and costumes are by Manolis Pantelidakis. \n\n\nThe leading roles are played by Dimitris Pyatas (Quasimodo)\, Nadia Kontogeorgis (Esmeralda)\, Thodoris Katsafados (Bishop Frolo)\, George Simeonidis (Gregoire)\, Dimitris Gotsopoulos (Phoebus)\, Kostas Maglaras (Chief of Gypsies)\, Alexandros Psychhramis (King Louis) and the lyrical singers Marios Petkidis\, Ioannis Kontellis (Two Griffins). Together with them\, a 20-member troupe of actors\, dancers\, acrobats\, musicians and singers perform the roles of the impressive performance.\n\n\n“Notre Dame de Paris” speaks about diversity and social discrimination\, about the much-discussed modern bullying\, which we find the same as today’s bullying during the Middle Ages\, about pure\, selfless love\, which goes as far as absolute giving and love\, about the authoritarianism and arbitrary power that crush or manipulate the common man. A deeply human poem that will take us on a journey through the stories of the good Quasimodo and the beautiful Esmeralda\, full of magic and humour\, truth and fairy tale\, action and song\, tears and joy. \nWith respect to the essence and atmosphere of the classical narrative\, but adapted to today’s linguistic and aesthetic perceptions and conditions\, so that children of all ages can follow it with comfort and interest\, but also draw useful moral lessons\, beneficial for their souls. \nA performance for the whole family based on a gem of European romanticism. \nAt the Pallas Theatre\, young and old alike will be entertained and applaud another theatrical gem! \n\n\nText: Stratis Paschalis\nDirection-choreography: Sofia Spyratou\nMusic: Nikos Kypourgos\nSets and costumes: Manolis Pantelidakis\nLighting design: Lefteris Pavlopoulos  \nProduction direction: Christina Niarou\nProduction execution: Dimitris Synodinos\nSpecial constructions: Alexandros Logos\nPhotos: Studio Vrettos\nContact: Irini Lagorou \n\n\nQuasimodo: Dimitris Piatas\nEsmeralda: Nadia Kontogeorgi\nFrollo: Thodoris Katsafados\nGregoire: George Simeonidis\nPhoebus: Dimitris Gotsopoulos\nLeader Of The Gypsies: Kostas Maglaras\nKing Louis: Alexander Psychramis\nGrypas A’: Marios Petkidis\nGrypas B’: Ioannis Kontellis\n\n\nWith them are (alphabetically): Angelos Antonakos\, Artemis Vavatsika\, Stratos Yaptse\, Iris Katraki\, Andreas Lavner\, Iris Mara\, Kosmas Metaxopoulos\, Natasa Sarantopoulou\, Yiannis Smeros\, Kostas Tsiamagas\, Eleanna Fovou\, Evi Hatzakis .

SUMMARY:Stamatis Spanoudakis presents his new album at Pallas Theater
DESCRIPTION:At Pallas Theater\, on 29 & 30 October 2018\, at 9:00 pm\, Stamatis Spanoudakis will present his new album entitled “Psyche mou\, don’t bend”. \n“A lyric from 2003 that becomes a song\, that becomes an album\, that becomes a concert. A “conversation” secret that calls to the inner life and to avoiding the daily traps of the “world”. A music that is sweet but also manly\, a melodic breath to what troubles and frightens us. To what is happening around and within us. Intentionally and unintentionally”\, Stamatis Spanoudakis emphasizes. \n“Greeks\, heads up! The sayings of our ancestors that “blood\, tears and sacrifices ask for you”\, the “Awesome Protection”\, the comfort that is generously given to us and the eternal presence that asks persistently\, but gently\, to finally open the door of your heart. A concert\, then\, with new songs and old favorites\, in a “wrong time” that proves to be so appropriate for those who “fight the good fight”\, concludes the well-known creator. \n\n\n\nWith him: \nthe string orchestra “Tamalo”\, with Alexandros Papadiamantis (violin) and Dimitris Kottaridis (cello) as soloists\, \nPanos Katsikiotis (drums)\, Nikos Hatzopoulos (double bass)\, Giorgos Kontovas (piano) \nthe four-voice choir “Melodoi” conducted by George Ziakas\, \nand the Spyros Lambrou Children’s Choir. \nThe proceeds of the concert will be donated to the children’s institutions of the Holy Metropolis of Singapore and South Asia. Specifically\, it will be given for the education\, housing and medical care of 1\,000 children in Medan\, Indonesia\, where the Holy Metropolis operates 5 schools (kindergarten\, elementary\, middle school\, high school\, polytechnic school)\, a boarding school and a hospital. With this care\, children from the slums of Medan are rescued from gangs\, abuse\, drugs and crime\, and educated so that they can live as adults in their homeland and not be forced to take the dangerous path of illegal immigration.

SUMMARY:The Rotating Dervishes Mevlevi at Pallas Theater
DESCRIPTION:Centred on the dance of the Dervishes\, we will follow the evolution of the ritual dance of the Sufis and how a secret dance can be translated into modern language and expression. \nOnce again we will enjoy the Spinning Dervishes of the “Mevlevi” Order with their ecstatic rotary dance \, while for the first time in Athens the well-known and exceptional dancer and choreographer\, the so-called Subversive Spinning Dervish\, Ziya Azazi\, will present the much talked about performance “Dervish In Progress”. \n\n\nThe Mevlevi Revolving Dervishes are members of the oldest order of Sufis \, founded in the 13th century by Gelalentin Rumi\, who for many scholars was considered one of the greatest mystical poets of the human race and by his contemporaries\, was given the name “Mevlana” meaning “our teacher”.\nThe Dervishes\, through a centuries-old choral rite\, seek to purify the human soul. The common goal of all the Sufi orders of the Dervishes\, and their supreme desire\, is their union with the Beloved (God) and the “Sema”\, their ecstatic\, rotating dance\, is the basic vehicle for the realization of their goal.\nThe Dervishes revolve around themselves to the sounds of traditional music\, while moving in circles across the stage.\n\nZiya Azazi was born in Antioch\, Turkey\, but lives permanently in Vienna. He started his studies on modern dance and in 1999 he began to explore traditional Sufi dance. In the same year he was named as the most impressive dancer of the year by “Ballet International Magazine” which made him widely known.\nContinuing his rising career he collaborates with major theatres as a choreographer and solo dancer\, such as Vienna Volksoper ( where he still teaches today ) \, Theaterhaus Stuttgart\, Grand Théâtre de Geneve etc. He has performed in many festivals and theatre stages all over the world\, always with standing ovation\, has won many awards for his work\, and has collaborated with many renowned artists\, e.g. Jan Fabre\, Silvert Hoyem\, Mercen Dede\, Burhan Ocal.\n\nBased on the rotational movement of the Dervishes\, he presents a modern and highly artistic view of the Sufi dance. His technique has been described worldwide as a masterpiece.\nHis performance “Dervish in Progress” has been performed all over the world\, everywhere arousing the enthusiasm of audiences and remains to be considered one of his most important performances\, a landmark performance\, where he showed for the first time how such a culture of mysticism as the Sufis can be translated into modern language and expression.

SUMMARY:Thanasis Vassilopoulos with the airy sound of the clarinet at Pallas Theater
DESCRIPTION:Season: 2018\nStart: 5 February 2018\nEnd: 5 February 2018\nConcert title: “My way”\n\n\nIn the times we live in\, we are increasingly finding that we need common points of reference. If our musical tradition is such a point of reference\, then one of its prince-expressors is expanding and multiplying its potential\, considered by many of his colleagues as a “national asset”. And he is none other than the clarinetist Thanasis Vassilopoulos. In a series of performances\, starting from the historic Pallas Theater in Bucharest\, he proposes the musical coupling of East and West\, marrying the traditional clarinet with the elegant sounds of American musicals and soundtracks. \nIn this magical journey\, the accompaniment of the instruments by the symphonic ensemble “Foux ensemble” under the direction of conductor George Zachariou\, contributes to the creation of a dreamy musical retrospective\, thus exalting the airy sound of Thanasis Vassilopoulos’ clarinet. \nThe interpretation of songs from both Greek and world cinema was chosen to be performed by people who have tasted and starred on the theatre stage. Thus\, Thanasis Alehuras\, Bessie Malfa\, Memos Begnis and Tania Trypi\, undertake this time with their vocal and not their acting skills\, to enchant us in exactly the same way as they have been impressing for years\, winning the audience’s critics for their interpretive skills. \nAs for the program\, Frank Sinatra’s iconic My way\, acquires a unique identity from the peculiar sound of Th. Vassilopoulos\, which has been praised from time to time by both Vangelis Papathanasiou and great Greek artists. The orchestral arrangements will be played and songs such as the Oscar-winning Chariots of fire\, the optimistic La vita e bella\, the theatrical Memories\, the mythical and also Oscar-winning The Godfather\, Singing in the rain\, the melody of Phaedra\, Hartino the moon and many… many… many more… will be performed. \nA performance in which Thanasis Vassilopoulos “reinvents” well-known songs\, choreographing the notes to paint the air. Imagination… is a Greek affair\, as he says. \nParticipants: Thanasis Alevras\, Bessy Malfa\, Memos Begnis\, Tania Trypi \n\n\nPerformers: \nDirected by Nikos Soulis\nOrchestration / Orchestra Conductor.\nLighting design: Eleftheria Nteko

SUMMARY:Mikis Theodorakis: The concert in honour of the great Greek composer at Pallas Theater
DESCRIPTION:Season: 2017\nStart: 4 December 2017\nEnd: 4 December 2017\n\n“Mikis Theodorakis: the Cretan\, the Greek\, the Ecumenical” on 4 December at the Pallas Theater\, with the symphony orchestra and the leading ballet soloists of the Kiev National Opera.\nExcitement at the rehearsals of Miki Theodorakis with Mary Lina and Tatiana Papageorgiou.  \nMore than half a century after its writing\, Mikis Theodorakis meets Mary Linda for “Archipelagos” and gives new form to the lost “Cretan Concerto” with the collaboration of Tatiana Papageorgiou \nThe composer Mikis Theodorakis\, the performer Mary Linda and the pianist Tatiana Papageorgiou were very emotional during the rehearsals of part of the programme to be performed at the magnificent concert to be held on 4 December at the Pallas Theater in honour of the leading Greek composer\, with the collaboration of the legendary Symphony Orchestra and the Kiev Opera Ballets. \nThis unique evening\, made possible by the sponsorship of the Bubouras Foundation\, the great Greek benefactor who lives in Odessa\, will feature the composer’s iconic works inspired by Crete and the Greek sea: The first Children’s Songs of 1937\, the “Cretan Concerto” for piano and orchestra in its first performance\, the beloved song cycle “Archipelagos” and scenes from the famous ballet “Alexis Zorbas”. A similar evening was held in October – on the anniversary of the no – in Odessa\, also sponsored by the Boubouras Foundation. Now the performance is being brought to Athens\, with the Symphony Orchestra and the Kiev Opera Ballets honoring the leading Greek composer. \n\n\n\n“Archipelagos” \n“It is very touching to meet more than 50 years later to present again the song cycle “Archipelagos”\, said Mikis Theodorakis addressing Mary Linda during their rehearsal for the concert. It should be noted that “Archipelagos” was written by the composer in 1959 with Mary Linda and Grigoris Bithikotsis as the first performers\, with poetry by Dimitris Christodoulou\, Nikos Gatsos\, the composer himself\, Odysseus Elytis\, Yannis Theodorakis and Panos Kokkinopoulos. During the rehearsal\, Mary Linda performed songs such as “In potisa rose”\, “Myrtia”\, “Rodia tetraklonis”\, etc. \nThe composer and the performer have great love and appreciation for each other. In a warm and friendly atmosphere they remembered the old times and the moments of the first recording session in the studio with Manolis Chiotis where he played bouzouki. One of his most beautiful memories\, as the composer pointed out. Among other things\, Mikis Theodorakis also recalled how the song “Se potisa roodostamos” was born\, the lyrics of which (Nikos Gatsos) had written down in a notebook. During a trip that they made with Linda and Chiotis\, when they went down to the hotel for breakfast\, the foundations were laid for the setting of the song to music and the subsequent recording of the song with Mary Linda. \nThe news of the rehearsal: Mikis Theodorakis showed on his tablet where he has all his work\, unpublished songs that he wrote much later and suggested to Mary Linda to sing them\, noting: “these are songs that I always wanted you to sing and now the time has come to record them with the contribution of Tatiana Papageorgiou”. In fact\, while rehearsing\, the composer often raised his hand while conducting Mary Linda. \n\n\n\n“Cretan Concerto” \nA very important element is also that Mikis Theodorakis together with the pianist and academic musicologist Tatiana Papageorgiou worked on the “Cretan Concerto” in a new\, reborn form. This is a work that the composer wrote in 1951 while he was in Chania\, which was subsequently lost and which Tatiana Papageorgiou unearthed after doctoral research at a British University. \n“Crete was a redemptive place for me then\,” noted the composer\, who chose to go to Chania after his release from Makronissos and all the suffering he experienced there. “It is also a great source of inspiration for his work. At that time he wrote many works for symphony orchestras and classical ensembles that were inspired by Crete\,” Tatiana Papageorgiou pointed out. One of them was the “Cretan Concerto”\, in a Cretan syrto rhythm\, which he played with the Chania Symphony Orchestra. There is even a documentary photograph of the orchestra\, which the composer showed us during the rehearsal”. Since then\, the “Cretan Concerto” is being performed for the first time\, 66 years later\, in a new form and with a new orchestration by Tatiana Papageorgiou\, now on 4 December at the Pallas Theater in a spectacular symphonic version with the Kiev Symphony Orchestra. \n“Crete\, with its steely rhythms\, carries the heroic history and the struggles of the Greeks”\, as the composer himself notes\, and symbolizes in his music dynamism and optimism. Crete for Miki is not only a place of origin\, but a place that takes on multiple symbolism in his work. \n\n\n\n“Zorba” \nThe monumental “Zorba”\, which will be presented in the second part of the programme\, also inspired by Crete\, represents the universality of Mikis Theodorakis\, as it is a recognizable work that is admired and appreciated internationally. Besides\, Archipelagos also contains elements of Cretan tradition and the spirit of Aegean music\, in music and lyrics. These include the song “Anamientos Syros y Tzia” with poetry by Odysseus Elytis. Expressive\, joyful\, touching songs\, on the opposite side of the steel rhythms that represent the Crete of tenderness and emotion. Among them also the very popular song “Abduction” (“I will take a boat\, my little heart”) with which Mikis Theodorakis won the first prize at the Thessaloniki Song Festival in 1961 with Mary Linda as the singer. At that time it was performed with Manolis Chiotis on bouzouki and with a Symphony Orchestra\, something very innovative for the time. Something that will happen now at the Pallas Theater with the Symphony Orchestra of the Kiev National Opera under the direction of Oleksiy Baklan. \nThe soloist on bouzouki in “Zorba” is the great virtuoso of the new generation Thanasis Vasilas\, a long-time collaborator of both Mary Linda and Mikis Theodorakis. \nThe concert\, due to the celebration of the International Day of People with Disabilities (3/12)\, is being held in cooperation with the Panhellenic Paraplegic Association\, to which the proceeds will be donated. \nWORKS: Zorba\, Archipelagos\, Cretan Concerto
