Tasos Rosopoulos: Songs About a Return

Composer Tasos Rosopoulos presents 'Songs About a Return', a song cycle for voice, guitar, violoncello, and electronics. The performance creates a single musical narrative centered on desire and the bittersweet experience of returning. Drawing from a wide array of literary sources including Kostas Ouranis, Homer, and Heinrich Heine, the work transforms nostalgia into a profound exploration of time and memory. The concert is part of the Contemporary Music Days festival at the Greek National Opera Alternative Stage, a curated series by Ioannis Angelakis that highlights the diversity of 20th and 21st-century musical creation.
