Notice: due to overwhelming demand, the venue for this event has been moved to the Cultural Foundation NBG – Villa Kapantzis.

A thoroughly innovative idea, designed especially for the 48th Dimitria. In open (on-line) communication with composers from the length and breadth of the globe, the Thessalonian musicians of the dissonArt ensemble select 111 miniatures, short original themes, which they will develop theatrically and present in an unpredictable concert, filled with sounds and melodies from the four corners of the earth. “Around the world in music” is the core idea behind the activity of the dissonArt ensemble, whose slogan is “looking for listeners who perceive music as an adventurous quest, not a passive emotional response”.

With a core of nine basic members, external collaborators and a flexible internal structure the dissonArt ensemble comprises:

Yiannis Anisegkos, Alexandros Stavridis, Hara Seira, Lenio Liatsou, Thodoris Patsalidis, Greta Papa, Vasilis Saitis, Yiannis Hatzis, Dimitris Papageorgiou.
