Ο Πήτερ Τιμπόρις, ένας αξιόλογος μαέστρος διεθνούς φήμης, από το 2000 έχει προ- σφέρει τα μέγιστα στην πολιτιστική πρόοδο της Ερμούπολης και του νησιού μας γενικό- τερα. Κάθε χρόνο το πρόγραμμα του είναι και μία έκπληξη για το φιλότεχνο κοινό, που κατακλύζει από όλο τον κόσμο το Θέατρο Απόλλων. Ένα ολόκληρο επιτελείο από καλλιτέ- χνες, μουσικούς, χορευτές, χορωδούς και τεχνικούς βρίσκεται σε απόλυτο συντονισμό για την υλοποίηση και την ανάδειξη των παραστάσεων εξαιρετικής ποιότητας που συμβάλ- λουν στην προβολή του νησιού μας, διεθνώς.

Thousands of artists from here and abroad have appeared in the elegant setting of the Apollo Theater, the sacred place of St. Nicholas Church, and the historic Miaoulis Square. My dream for this Festival has been broad in scope, not only to include opera, symphony, chamber, recital, and choral music, but also to grow to include the areas of theater, ballet, folk music, jazz and music & opera education. Over these years, Syros in general and Hermoupolis in particular have become the centerpieces of this Festival. The keystone of this year’s Festival is the presentation of Strauss’ Salome conducted by Wiktor Bockman of St. Gallen, Switzerland, directed by Dirk Schattner of Hamburg, and starring Eilana Lappalainen in the role of Salome. We also have major works of Beethoven, Schubert, Ravel, Rutter, Euripides’ Herakles, the Greek National Opera Ballet, Christos Papageorgiou, the Greek Opera Studio, 19 visiting choirs (from the USA, Canada, France, and Greece), an international cast of world-class soloists, and the first appearance of the Symphony Orchestra of the National Theatre of Opera and Ballet, Tirana, Albania. Most especially on July 15 my dear friend and colleague, composer and conductor John Rutter of Great Britain, makes his Greek debut. How many visiting artists during the two-week period? More than 450! On the piano in the foyer of the Apollo Theater there is a special baton exhibition from my private collection. There you can see the batons of Arturo Toscanini (1950-54 NBC Orchestra), Leonard Bernstein (1980-85 NY Philharmonic), Giuseppe Sinoppoli (Philharmonia of London, early 1980s) and Frederic Chopin (1840's Paris, La Madeleine). Next year’s Festival will be a celebration of Verdi, Wagner, and Britten, all of whom will reach major birth anniversaries. The Festival will open on July 9 with Verdi’s Requiem. My sincerest wish is that you will participate in our events and enjoy the combination of art and setting in the middle of the Cyclades. Warmest thanks, Peter Tiboris General Director MondaY, JULY 9, 2012, 9 P.M.

Wilde wrote Salome in French because he knew that the play’s celebration of sin and depravity would cause an uproar in the English-speaking world. He was right. When Wilde’s partner translated the opera into English, it was banned from the English stage. The German translation of the play became the libretto for Richard Strauss’ opera Salome. The opera was first produced in Dresden on December 9, 1905. Although widely criticized for its adult themes and imagery, the public embraced the work, which was performed at 50 opera houses within two years of the premiere. The opera, which is in one act, takes place in Judea in 30 A.D.

  • DIMITRIS PAKSOGLOU – Tenor Born in Greece. Dimitris Paksoglou First Embarked on a Career As an Actor and Studied at the National Superior School of Drama
    DIMITRIS PAKSOGLOU – Tenor Born in Greece. Dimitris Paksoglou first embarked on a career as an actor and studied at the National Superior School of Drama. As an actor he went on to appear in important Greek theatres, including the ancient theatre of Epidaurus, the Greek National Theatre and the Athens Megaron. He then decided to make a career change and studied singing at the Athens National Conservatory under the guidance of the famous baritone Kostas Paskalis and Marina Krilovici, graduating with distinction. He moved to France where he appeared with several opera companies and his success lead Greek National Opera to offer him a contract as a principal tenor. He continues to appear in leading roles with the company, which he combines with guest appearances abroad. Greek Dimitris Paksoglou does not sing Cavaradossi with the usual slightly emotional Mediterranean glow. His tenor is more powerfully virile, but also with beautiful splashes of tenderness. He makes his famous song for life with considerable intensity. AFTONBLADET – Lennart Bromander - Monday 10th February 2020 Dimitris Paksoglou who sang Cavaradossi is a real Italian tenor (although he is Greek) with plenty of power and clear tone up to the highest register.

  • Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus Program
    Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus Program 21 and 22 June 2019 Oedipus The iconic story of Oedipus comes alive in Robert Wilson’s series of breathtaking, distinctive tableau vivant. The celebrated director follows Oedipus’ story chronologically, without faithfully adapting Sophocles’ Oedipus Rex, from the moment of Oedipus’ birth and his abandonment as an infant to the moment of his self-inflicted blinding, following the horrific revelations: from the first light of birth to the last light he sees before it all goes black. Two ‘witnesses,’ a man and a woman, spin his tale, the life and times of Oedipus, speaking across the centuries. Concept - Directing - Set design - Lighting design: Robert Wilson Co-directed by: Ann Christin Rommen Dramaturgy: Konrad Kuhn Original music: Dickie Landry, Kinan Azmeh Costume design: Carlos Soto Set design collaboration: Annick Lavallée-Benny Lighting design collaboration: Solomon Weisbard Sound design: Dario Felli Lighting programming and supervision: Marcello Lumaca Make-up: Manu Halligan Sound engineer: Marco Olivieri Technical manager: Enrico Maso Mechanic: Adriano Pernigotti Seamstress: Lara Friio Stage design: Cecilia Sacchi Follow spot operator: Isadora Giuntini Hairstyle and make-up artist: Nicole Tomaini Video: Andrea Villa Assistant to the director: Sara Thaiz Bozano Cast: Angela Winkler, Lydia Koniordou, Michalis Theophanous, Casilda Madrazo, Kayije Kagame, Alexis Fousekis, Dickie Landry Also starring: Meg Harper, Laila Gozzi, Alessandro Anglani, Marcello di Giacomo, Gaetano Migliaccio, Francesco Roccasecca,
