A summer full of music: this is how we would describe this year's summer. I will travel to every corner of Greece for concerts this summer. From the Herodeion to Crete, and from Crete to Lemnos, Syros, Koufonisia, Prespes and Chalki.

My tour begins on June 17 at the inauguration at the historical castle of Mytilene, Lesvos, where I will be performing with pianist Apostolos Palios. 

Immediately after on June 19 I am looking forward to playing at the Nikos Kazantzakis museum. For me a dream comes true playing at this place because Kazantzakis is one of the most important Greek writers of the last century. 

On June 28 at the Herodeion together with Athens State Orchestra we will perform Ludwig van Beethoven's magnificent Ninth Symphony under the baton of the renowned Estonian-born American conductor Neeme Järvi.

Then, on 21 July, I travel to the Venetian castle in Katalagari in Heraklion, Crete, where together with the Vamos orchestra we will inaugurate the venue and present a programme of works by E. Ysaye and A. Vivaldi.

On 27 July I will be at the 9th Koufonisia Classical Music Festival for a unique recital with the young piano virtuoso Alexia Mouza. The programme includes works by Ysaye, Franck and Poulenc.

August 1st I will find myself in distant Lemnos, at the island's festival/institution, and specifically at the Kournos Music Festival, which will present a programme of three centuries of music in Myrina, in collaboration with the Medina Mediterranean Institute for Nature and Man. 

On 13 August I travel to Syros for the International Classical Music Festival of Cyclades for a chamber music concert of Shostakovich and Mendelssohn.

Shortly before the grand final of the tour, I participate in the "SONG TO THE EARTH: A spatial performance based on Das Lied von der Erde by Gustav Mahler", as part of the Ministry of Culture's "All Greece is one culture", which will be presented at Agios Achillion in Prespes on 24 and 25 August, under the musical direction of Yorgos Ziavras.

The summer tour closes with a recital for piano and violin on September 8 at the Chalki Music Festival, where Apostolos Palios and I perform works by Poulenc, Corelli, de Falla, and Bartok. 

My arrangement of Mozart's world famous aria of the Queen of the Night is out now!
