Of Thy Mystical Supper
The Metropolitan Cathedral of Athens provides a resonant setting for this Easter concert by the City of Athens Choir. The programme traces the musical evolution of the Divine Drama, spanning centuries from Byzantine traditions to contemporary Greek compositions. It is a sombre and atmospheric event that captures the spiritual weight of the Holy Week preparations in the heart of the city.
Conducted by Stavros Beris, the performance features works by a diverse range of composers including Sergei Rachmaninoff and Mikis Theodorakis, with accompaniment by Dimitris Vezyroglou on the organ. The selection offers a broad perspective on religious choral music, highlighting both international influences and the distinct melodic character of the Greek Orthodox tradition.
