The Athens Philharmonia Orchestra and its Art Director, conductor Byron Fidetzis, in collaboration with the Municipality of Vrilissia, presented an opera night with favorite excerpts from operatic works by Greek and international composers, dedicated to the memory of the great artists who recently passed away.
This honorary event features well-known artists of the Greek National Opera, who offered their services without compensation.
