Cairo Opera House to Host 'Zorba the Greek' Performance Tomorrow
Rana Atef Tomorrow, Tuesday, the Cairo Opera House will host a "Zorba" performance by the iconic Greek composer Mikis Theodorakis on the occasion of the Greek National Day, and the declaration of 2025 as a year to honor Theodorakis. The event is organized by the Embassy of Greece in Cairo, in cooperation with the Egyptian Ministry of Culture, the Cairo Opera House, and the Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation (ERT). The concert will be performed by the Symphony Orchestra of the Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation, accompanied by the 'Acappella' Choir of the Cairo Opera House. Mikis Theodorakis, who is not only a cultural but also a political figure, is considered one of the most influential contemporary composers of the second half of the 20th century. His works include symphonies, oratorios, ballets, operas, chamber music, and solo piano compositions. However, his most significant legacy lies in setting the poetry of award-winning Greek and international poets to music, such as Yannis Ritsos, Kostas Varnalis, and Nobel laureates Giorgos Seferis (Nobel Prize in Literature, 1963), Pablo Neruda (1971), and Odysseas Elytis (1979). Theodorakis gained worldwide fame after composing the widely recognized Zorba the Greek musical theme in 1963 by director Michael Cacoyannis. The music transcended the story and film due to its deep emotional resonance and harmony with the film's central character, becoming an authentic expression of the Greek spirit. Founded in 1938, the National Symphony Orchestra of the Hellenic Broadcasting Corporation has revived works by prominent composers through recordings and live broadcasts on radio and television, as well as concerts across Greece. The orchestra has also performed on historic stages like the Herod Atticus Odeon during the Athens Festival, as well as in Belgrade, the Cairo Opera House, Montreal, Cologne, Paris, and Istanbul, in addition to international events organized with the European Broadcasting Union. In October 2006, it held a concert at the United Nations General Assembly Hall and Lincoln Center in New York, and in October 2007, it performed at the opening ceremony of the Greek Cultural Year in China, held at the Beijing Multimedia Theater. Today, the orchestra is considered one of the most dynamic and accomplished symphonic ensembles in Greece. Since December 2022, it has been conducted by the renowned maestro Michalis Economou. The upcoming event reflects the deep cooperation between the Greek Embassy in Cairo and the Cairo Opera House, reaffirming the cultural collaboration between Greece and Egypt, and a positive and enduring aspect of the strong ties and excellent relations between the two nations and their peoples. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Videos & Features Bouchra Dahlab Crowned Miss Arab World 2025 ..
