Mikis Theodorakis Conducting 2017




A one-thousand-member choir directed by Panagis Barbatis and 50.000 spectators paid tribute to Greek legendary composer Mikis Theodorakis took place in Athens on Monday, June 19.

It was already a magical summer night at the Panathinaic stadium before the largest ever assembled choir in Greece took the stage to make history in front of people of all ages who came together to honor Mikis Theodorakis.

The concert was many times interrupted by sudden cheers of love towards Thedorakis.

The composer of Zorba took to the stage towards the end of the concert bringing the crowd to tears. As the crowd wouldn’t stop applauding he also broke to tears!
