Date: July 2 &3, 2024
Time: 8:00 pm - 10:30 pm
Location: Erofili Theatre, Fortress

The musical work "SOMNIA PACIS | Dreaming of Peace" combines music and speech in an expressive interaction.

It begins with war conflict and expands to the stages individuals, communities, and the world go through. The work artistically searches for peaceful coexistence.

It is a musical creation using both classical and traditional sounds, sometimes complex and sometimes simple expressive forms. The narration complements and reinforces the themes brought by the music, balancing between the horrors of war and the dream of peace.

The collective vocal and rhythmic percussion and narration, combined with the orchestral ensemble, weave an inter-artistic web. This aims not only to move and arouse the listeners' senses but also to provoke them with a unique musical experience for many.
