Open-air concert with 9 soloists

Concert part of the 12th International Pharos Chamber Music Festival with 9 world renowned soloists.

The concert will take place at the Olive Grove, a world-class, open-air concert venue, which aims to deliver relaxed and informal events so that intimacy is developed between the artists and the audience. The venue is surrounded by the idyllic forest of Delikipos and is adorned with wooden decks, shallow pools of water, zen landscaping and a uniquely atmospheric lighting. The audience can relax on the chairs, blankets and pillows with a glass of wine. Our vision is to make contemporary art less intimidating for our audience, as we do not want to lure an audience with popular music but to find innovative ways of approaching these events to make them more fun and appealing without compromising quality and vision.
