THE Natassa Bofiliou will appear for a live performance at Pyrgos Bazaios in Naxos, within the framework of the Naxos Festival, presenting her new songs and more, unplugged, on Monday 30 July 2012.

Natassa Bofiliou, the performer who has been discussed as few singers of her generation, after a completely successful winter it takes the streets of the summer and proves once and for all, why her live shows are a special experience.

With constant companions Gerasimos Evangeliatos in the lyrics and artistic editing and Themis Karamouratidis in the compositions and orchestrations, Natassa Bofiliou in her most communicative moment confirms those who talk about a new substantial proposal in good Greek song.  And if her communicative side has left her mark accompanied by a complete band, her truly soulful interpretation is fully revealed in the simplicity of an acoustic musical scheme. In these collectibles, indulgent evenings, Natassa Bofiliou accompanied by Themis Karamouratides on the piano and the lyricism of the violin and cello sounds, promises a magical atmosphere, absolute sensitivity and melodiousness.

The well-known and favorite songs from "One Hundred Little Breaths", "Until the end" , the "Three Secrets" and "Double Tickets", meet the brand new songs from "Days of Light" that have already caused a sensation, in a renewed, specially designed program, based on the authentic emotion of an explosive personal performance.

This summer if you get the chance to enjoy this unique musical experience of essential simplicity, μη τη χάσετε.

Yiannis Angelakas with his company, Dino Sadikis in baglama, the new member of the scheme Christos Harbila in electronics,
Titos Kargiotakis on the sound console and Stathis Arambatzis on the guitar, continue their live performances.

At this time the group is in the studio every day, he is recording new songs for the new album that is expected to be released at the end of the year and is preparing for the concerts he will give throughout Greece.

“…Έχει διαμορφωθεί ένας καινούριος ήχος, μερικά νέα κομμάτια, καινούριες αγωνίες…” όπως λέει ο ίδιος ο Γιάννης Αγγελάκας.
Part of this work will be presented to us in the concerts they will give in the summer!

Giannis Angelakas does not need special introductions. With a torrential presence on stage, with "deep soul", manages to captivate us with the special "no rules", his interpretation and lift our mood into a "heretical" delirium.

Yiannis Angelakas recently commented:
"True music and art in general must prophesy the worst in times when men think they are prosperous and the best when they are unhappy, they become depressed and believe that all is lost, reminding them that always, in the deepest darkness, consciousness and the drive for evolution flourished. We still have many charming off-the-beaten paths to walk. Let's do it alltogethernow"
Dinos Sadikis created En Plo to 1985, a benchmark band for Greek rock, even though they only released one historical album*. With Giannis Angelakas, old friends and associates, they were also found together in the Visitors, of which Stathis Arabatzis was also a member. Christos Harbilas, old partner with Yiannis Angelakas, has been involved with both the Visitors and the Wolves.
Wherever they appear, Yannis Angelakas and his company leave the best impressions and excite the audience. Always relaxed, but also always enthusiastic, they are touching, from the beginning to the end of each of their appearances.

The Athens Festival presents in the Ancient Theater of Epidaurus the play of Aristophanes entitled "Church women», produced by the New World Theater and directed by Vangelis Theodoropoulos the two days 27-28 July.

A few words about the project:
If Aristophanes lived, would once again entrust the management of the state to women; As he did then, στα 392 e.g., when defeated Athens was in decline. Loyal to tradition, able to handle money, the Athenians, in Churchmen - a more philosophical than political comedy- declare joint ownership. The comedian's response to the Platonic State;

The Theater of the New World, in a modern reading of the comedy by Vangelis Theodoropoulos, explores female power and is fascinated by the theatricality of changing roles between the two sexes.

One of Aristophanes' finest comedies will be presented this summer by DIPETHE CRETE directed by Yiannis Kakleas, music by Manos Hadjidakis, sets by Manolis Pantelidakis and costumes by Valias Margaritis and Manolis Pantelidakis.

Vassilis Charalambopoulos in the lead role and with him Odysseas Papaspiliopoulos.

The Hens of Aristophanes were presented on 414 B.C. in Dionysia, giving its creator the second prize. Aristophanes wrote "The Chickens" disappointed by the turn of the Peloponnesian War. With this great work, Aristophanes finds the opportunity to satirize the sycophants and sycophants of the municipality, as well as the theories of new polities. The work deals with the escape of two people from the tyranny of the world to the kingdom of fairy tales and combines fantasy with poetry.
