How often does one come across a piano on Mesogeion Avenue?

Recognizing the multiple health benefits of music, Henry Dunant is participating in Piano City Athens.  Outside the hospital, a piano invites neighbors and passers-by to a musical experience.

For a single day, on Friday, May 12, from 11:00 to 13:30, the main entrance of the hospital will be immersed in melodies that will “speak” ... therapeutic words to the hearts and minds of those who will attend. 

Pianist Marilena Suri will play everything from Rachmaninoff to Ravel.  From well-known Greek island tunes to favorite themes from Greek and foreign movies.

A program with intense changes and different rhythms invites you to a music break in the city center.

What is Piano City Athens?

Having inspired thousands of people in Berlin, New York, Milan, and other metropolises of the world, Piano City® is now arriving in Athens.

Piano virtuosos and amateurs from all over the city will open their homes and hearts to the public.  They will show their skill by giving small piano concerts in their homes with a repertoire ranging from classical to modern. Piano enthusiasts, as well as the public, will have a unique opportunity to enjoy these melodic experiences.  From Friday morning to Sunday, Piano City® Athens will transform Athens into an improvised piano concert hall.

Athens becomes part of the Piano City music movement!

Piano CITY® was launched by Andreas Kern, an artist and visionary from Berlin, Germany. His idea brings together people from all over the world - through music.  With Berlin as the starting city, his idea shows us that every city is a place where music and culture are valued, supported, and enjoyed: not only internationally, but also on a broad private level.

A three-day festival full of inspiration.
Athens will immerse in music...
