| RGE, travelling to Syros island |
One of the most memorable musical journeys of the Rodotopi Guitar Ensemble took place in July 2023 on the island of Syros, as part of its participation in the 29th Ermoupolis Guitar Festival. With the support of the Municipality of Zitsa, this appearance offered the opportunity for a local cultural initiative to reach the heart of the Aegean.
The Ensemble performed in several historic 19th-century buildings of distinct architecture, including a concert at the Ermoupolis Cultural Center, a rehearsal at the Velissaropoulos Mansion (Cyclades Labour Center), and participation in the festival’s closing concert at the emblematic “Apollon” Theatre of Ermoupolis.
