Tonight! Charles returns to conduct the Athens Philharmonic in it`s 80th anniversary season

Throughout its long history, the Athens State Orchestra has supported remarkable young musicians by inviting them to perform with it. Many names that have risen to the very top of the Greek and/or international music scene have graced the orchestra's concerts with their talent at an early age. Honouring this tradition, three promising young soloists who excelled in our recent competition each perform a concerto under the baton of a maestro with whom Greek audience are very familiar, the Canadian conductor Charles Olivieri-Munroe. We are sure they have a bright artistic future ahead of them.
