Breathing In Three Strings
19.08 — 20.08.2023
Description
Georgia Dakaki, a master of the Cretan lyre and a performer with a great knowledge of Greek music, converses on stage with Takis Chrysikakos in the music theatre performance titled Breathing in Three Strings, where music and singing engage in a dialogue with poetry and prose literature. The two artists join their forces to produce one single voice of awakening to everything that is at stake at the threshold of climate change and its non-reversible effects: along with the sea, the forests and the sky, we also run the risk of losing that great part of our national heritage that is inspired by all these elements, since references to nature, both in music and literature, will become increasingly more unfamiliar to each subsequent generation. We take a stand against this threat with a celebration dedicated to nature and its representation in Greek music and literature.
