Following the success of the “Treasure of Kampos” and the unique interartistic events it offered the Festival audience, the musical walk returns this year with a new proposal and in a different setting. 

In the medieval settlement of Kalamoti, one of the largest mastic villages in southern Chios, visitors will have the opportunity to wander through the historic alleys for two nights and experience short musical, literary and dramatic “surprises” along the way. Under the stars, we will also wander through Miki’s “galaxy”, which is how he describes his musical universe and the multiple creative connections between his works. In an atmospheric walk directed by the talented Eleni Efthymiou, songs and choral works by Theodorakis, performed by local choirs, will alternate with excerpts from the composer’s life as recounted in his own writings.
