In the context of the exhibition RebetikoThe Marios Hadjiprokopiou presents on March 31 at 19.00 the performance “Rebetisses of Dounias”, in the foyer of Olympia, Municipal Music Theater “Maria Callas”.
If, almost forty years ago, the Dinos Christianopoulos praised Hippocleides as “the first rebet of the dunia” – “the first prince of Athens, who tore in beauty and sophistication” – and, beside him, Alexander or Demosthenes, his performance Hadjiprokopiou and his texts seek their traces rebetisson, beyond genders and across borders, literally all over the dunia, with axes of wandering and desire. Where does Chavela Vargas meet Sotiria Bellou?
What unites them men in dresses who give birth to whales on the ice with the speakers of a language that does not distinguish between sexes and comes from the clouds? What do the brothers of the Syrian desert have in common with the famous mentally ill man of Saxony, son and wife of God? When do the mountains resound and how does the body wander? Why is the moonlight lost?
THE performance of Marios Hadjiprokopiou meets his electric guitar and his musical improvisation Giannis Anastasakis and its Live Visuals Natalia Manta.
It is reminded that the Rebetiko exhibition of OPANDA, with works-assignments of the Municipality of Athens to Greek artists especially for the exhibition, continues until April 3 in three places: in the Gallery of the Municipality of Athens, the Arts Center and Olympia, Municipal Music Theater “Maria Callas ».
