Traditional sounds

Concert of traditional music with Michalis and Kostas Begio.

The biggest musical event of  instruments in Halkidiki. The sound of the clarinet traditionally accompanies every major event in the small towns and villages of the province of Voio, Kozani: weddings, christenings, national and religious celebrations.

Virtuoso musicians are mostly fully self-taught and offer an air of authenticity that is not associated with academic musicians. They play with the ear quite spontaneously, based on their imagination and musical memory. They play from their heart and soul and their music reaches the listeners precisely for these qualities.The sound of the clarinet and the trumpet is a way of purifying the heart and the soul.

"Hansel and Gretel"

THEATER

"Hansel and Gretel"

The playground of Yiannis Christopoulos brings up the work Hansel and Gretel, inspired by the Grimm Brothers fairy tale.

The story of the fairy tale refers to a terrible witch who attracts children to her candy house to eat, but the witch has the ability to transform herself into a beautiful woman. That's because evil in real life has the ability to disguise itself in something beautiful. There is still the witch's cat who is the comic element of the work and who constantly fights with him with his conscience. There are brothers, Hansel and Gretel, innocent but intelligent, with a very strong bond between them and with the longing to support their widow's father, who, due to lack of a woman, falls victim to the satanic but charming witch.

 

The show wants to pass on the message to the children, that in the fight against evil the greatest defense is the power of the family.

The actors are shown:

Giannis Piskitzis, Elena Kalligeri, Petros Nicolaou, Manolis Kontaxakis and Konstantina Sanni.

Place: New Moudania Amphitheater
