Vasilis Saleas is the soloist who brought the Greek clarinet to the greatest music halls around the world. Self-taught, he inspired great composers and has managed for many years to “dress” everything he loves with his favorite musical instrument and its melodies. Vassilis Saleas, who grew up in a house of musicians, is a leading Greek instrumentalist who has collaborated with composers like Vangelis Papathanasiou, Mikis Theodorakis and Stamatis Spanoudakis. He has appeared at the largest festivals abroad, in Paris, Frankfurt, Sydney, New York and Toronto. In today’s GME we listen not only to his classics but also to tracks from his recent collaboration with Turkish musician Ahmet Koc
