"THE SOLSTICE" - Songs for the summer

- On Sunday, June 30, the "Greece 2021" Committee presents the third part in the series of anniversary podcasts "200 YEARS IN PIECES" by Dionysis Savvopoulos

On June 21, the sun makes a stop and thus gives us the longest day of the year. This date has also been established as World Music Day. Dionysis Savvopoulos celebrates this year's Summer Solstice with what else? With songs and stories about them. He dedicates his "Solstice" to the golden little Summer and compiles the season's soundtrack for us.

In the context of the projects and events for the 200 years after the Greek Revolution, the "Greece 2021" Committee presents a series of commemorative podcasts with Dionysis Savvopoulos, dedicated to the 200 years of Greek song.

The third podcast of the series "200 YEARS IN PIECES" is entitled "THE SOLSTICE" – Songs for the Summer. On Sunday, June 20, 2021, at noon, it will be available on the Committee's website at the link https://www.greece2021.gr/ta-podcast-tis-epitropis-ellada-2021.html and also at the www.lifo.gr website.

In these podcasts, Dionysis Savvopoulos collaborates with musicologist Professor Lambros Liavas, journalist, collector, researcher Giorgos Kontogiannis, and painter Alexis Kyritsopoulos.

The above-stated project is a contribution of the "Greece 2021" Committee. The Committee does not receive State funding. Its proceeds come exclusively from sponsorships and its Numismatic Programme, which includes 14 collector coins available through its e-shop at shop.greece2021.gr, which should all acquire.
