Routylos and the Nymphs of the Sea

A musical tale with harps

What will happen if six children play on their harps, with strings tangled up as lunar threads, in their hands? The sound of the harp is without doubt magical and takes us away to dream-lands.

The tale tells the story of a lonesome musician, mourning the loss of his beloved one; six dreamy beings with pearly eyes guarding the sea; strings and lunar threads under the full moon; a goddess shape-shifted into a golden swan; eerie melodies and journeys beyond the human limits.
The audience will enjoy, free of charge, the musical tale with harps “Routylos and the Nymphs of the Sea”, a performance which aims at creating a magical ambiance with unique sounds and eerie beings, taking us away from the sphere of reality, into faraway, dreamy places.
The event is organised by the PositivumInterdisciplinary Centre in collaboration with the SPAVO (Association for the Prevention and Handling Violence in the Family). The performance has been prepared by the children of the Creative Harp Studio, for the children of the Association for the Prevention and Handling of Violence in the Family.

The performance is suitable for all audiences and the admission is free, while donations for SPAVO will be collected on the day, for those who wish, at the performance venue.
