Meeting of Two Cultures

Four artists from Cyprus and Turkey join in a musical journey and coexist through works of Greek, Cypriot, Turkish and Russian composers, demonstrating that the power of music is stronger than our differences. Manolis Neophytou-piano, Orfeas Hiratos (Cyprus)-clarinet Canan Kocaay Camurtas-piano (Turkey-Switzerland), Ayse Karaoglan (Turkish-Cypriot) violin, give a joint concert that unites cultures.

They are going to present music from the Greek movie Politiki Kouzina, works by Mikis Theodorakis, Manos Hadjidakis, Stamatis Spanoudakis, Kostas Kakoyiannis, George Karvellos, Michalis Andronikou, the 2nd suite for two pianos by Sergei Rachmaninoff, the valse no2 by Dmitrii Schostakovitch, Ballades by the great Turkish pianist and composer Fazil Say and other works.
