1981), Richard Rodgers ("The Sound of Music", 1959), Cy Coleman ("Sweet Charity", 1966), and John Kander ("Cabaret", 1966) pass the baton to Dimitris
Maramis' "Erotokritos" and the songs of Greek revue by Giorgos Mouzakis ("Raise the Anchors", 1950), Yannis Konstantinidis ("The Bonbonniere", 1927), Stamatis Kraounakis ("In the Constellation of Medusa", 1984), Dionysis Savvopoulos ("Acharnians", 1977), as well as famous arias from the operas of Georges Bizet ("Carmen", 1875), Giacomo Puccini ("Gianni Schicchi", 1918), and the operettas of Theofrastos Sakellaridis ("The Godson", 1918; "I Want to
