Greek Music Express: Songs with Symphony Orchestras – Alkistis Protopsalti sings Ilias Andriopoulos | 28 Feb 2024

Composer Ilias Andriopoulos notes: “I introduced the symphonic orchestra for a reason. I didn’t do it superficially to play songs that don’t lend themselves to such treatments by big orchestras. I don’t want to mention now neither colleagues, nor singers who do this simply to show off. In art, things are very difficult in terms of approach and analysis; we play with details”. Today, we are listening to the historic 1994 live concert of Andriopoulos with singer Alkistis Protopsalti and the Orchestra of Modern Music and Chorus of the Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation.
