The Athens “Musicport” returns -for a third year in a row- and celebrates the European Music Day with airport passengers and visitors!
 
This Sunday, June 21st, the Athens State Orchestra's fine “Woodwind” Quintet, invites us into a magical musical journey, through classical and contemporary compositions from the symphonic and the opera repertoire, and melodies from Latin American and beloved scores from great moments of the international cinema.
 
Of course, the celebration of the European Music Day at the Athens airport could not but include songs from the local music scene with the performance of the works of two emblematic personalities of Greek music, Nikos Skalkottas and Manos Chatzidakis.
