Review of the Rodotopi Guitar Ensemble in Switzerland (September 2025)

RGE, Lausanne

The Rodotopi Guitar Ensemble (RGE) undertook a unique cultural journey to Switzerland in early September 2025, as part of the project “Musical Bridges with Greek Communities of Switzerland.” The aim of this initiative was both to promote and showcase works by Greek composers abroad, and to strengthen the bonds between Greece and the Greek communities overseas, through music and artistic collaboration.

As part of the project, the Ensemble presented two concerts featuring Greek songs and works for guitar ensemble — in Lausanne and Zurich — organized in collaboration with the Hellenic Association of Lausanne “Estia” and the Hellenic Community of Zurich, respectively. Both performances were warmly received by the audiences, which embraced the Ensemble’s musicians and celebrated music as a bridge of cultural continuity and emotional connection with the homeland.
