Synergia - Music from the Island of Cyprus Dimitri Psonis

This program brings together the most beautiful songs and dances from the ancient Cypriot traditions, a rediscovery of forgotten repertoires performed by singers and instrumentalists of the island, along with musicians from Greece and Turkey, all selected and directed by Dimitri Psonis. Music that has been maintained through ancient

oral traditions, displaying the rich diversity of this ancient culture through a lively recreation that is faithful to both the traditions and modernity of the island. This miracle is possible due to artists who, with their exhaustive knowledge of these traditions which have been transmitted from generation to generation, give new life to these

songs of love, unsettling lullabies and dances full of enthusiasm and vitality. Thus we are going to experience the deep and mysterious link between history, art and life.
