Description
Family Concerts by the Cyprus Symphony Orchestra
Shadow Theatre with “Karagiozis” Puppeteer Thodoris Kostidakis
Idea, story design, selection and orchestration of musical works: Alkis Baltas
Live music by CySO musicians
An exciting performance, both instructive and entertaining for children and grown-ups alike. Nionios (Mr. Dionysios), an ardent music lover, tries to convince Karagiozis to attend a classical music concert, organized by Vizier’s daughter. Karagiozis refuses to do so until Veligegas orders that everyone should attend the concert: Karagiozis, Barbayiorgos, Stavrakas, Hadjiavatis and all the other Shadow Theatre characters. During the concert, Karagiozis has many questions (about the instruments, the music, the composer and other things). Nionios patiently explains everything in simple terms, wishing to initiate him into the world of classical music. Gradually, Karagiozis completely changes his view about this music, which he previously thought to be difficult and heavy! Now he loves it!
