CORFU. The tribute concert for the great Greek composer Mikis Theodorakis on the first anniversary of his death filled the Upper Square last night.

The Upper Square was full on Friday night for the tribute concert for the great Greek composer Mikis Theodorakis on the first anniversary of his death.





The highlight of the evening was, of course, the performance of the unrivalled, iconic singer Maria Farantouri. Other soloists were Antonis Koronaios and Pantelis Kontos and Panagis Barbatis conducted.



300 choirs from all over Corfu and a Greek 30-member symphony orchestra with mandolin players performed a symphonic and choral work by Panagis Barbatis with lyrics by Klelia Harisi and narrated by Nikos Anthis.

The performance was directed by Petros Gallias.
