Alkinoos Ioannidis in Prague!
One of the most well loved Greek songwriters and performers
Alkinoos Ioannidis
for the first time in Prague!
30.4.2015, 20:00,
MEETFACTORY – PRAGUE
with Yiorgos Kaloudis on cello and Cretan lyra and
with the participation of the Philokallia Ensemble
Alkinoos Ioannidis, one of the most well loved Greek songwriters and performers will be performing in Prague for the first time of his long and successful carrier. Due to his amalgamation of Cypriot and Greek influences along with byzantine, classical and rock music elements, in addition to his unique vocal delivery, Alkinoos is now one of the most interesting and popular Greek Cypriot musicians.
Along with the Greek cello virtuoso and improviser Yiorgos Kaloudis he will be performing songs from his personal and collaborative projects, along with tracks from his latest album entitled “Small Suitcase”.
It’s been a long road, with many miles travelled, for these two performers from very different artistic backgrounds to come together. This unique collaboration is based on common aesthetic criteria, the freedom provided by improvisational techniques and the sheer pleasure of sharing a stage and understanding the power of song in the simplest form. This performance will allow listeners to really enjoy the artistic tension and space an acoustic set up provides, without anyone or anything competing to take centre stage.
At this unique Prague concert he will be also singing selected songs with the Czech vocal group Philokallia Ensemble.
Alkinoos Ioannidis: Voice, Guitar, Lute,
Yiorgos Kaloudis: Cello and Cretan lyra
Philokallia Ensemble: Female voices
