Whatever Remains Human
15.07 — 16.07.2026

Description
This music-theatre performance is an artistic fusion of music, poetry, and theatrical storytelling, centered on the musical work and personal archive of the musicologist, researcher, and composer Markos Dragoumis. For the first time, his piano compositions and musical settings of poems by Andreas Embirikos and Nanos Valaoritis are presented, revealing the multifaceted nature of his compositional voice, its expressionist character, impressionist influences, references to tradition, and engagement with modal music. This rare material is interwoven with the narratives of Filippos and Natalia Dragoumi, who bring to the stage memories, letters, and diary entries from the world of their father, lending the performance a deeply personal and experiential dimension. Inspired by authenticity and sincerity beyond restrictive social and artistic conventions, Dragoumis offers a liberating source of inspiration for contemporary creation. Pianist Masa Josillo and performer-composer Fenia Christou approach this material through the directorial vision of Penelope Flouri. The work ultimately asks what remains human today, through art and through the act of coming together.
