How often do you come across a piano on Mesogeion Avenue?
Recognizing the multiple health benefits of music, Henry Dunant is participating in Piano City Athens for the fourth consecutive year. At the hospital’s main entrance, a piano invites visitors to a musical experience.
For one day only, on Thursday, May 14, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., the Hospital's main entrance will come alive with melodies that will soothe the mind and uplift the spirit of everyone in attendance.
Christina Milili and Marina Avgeri will present an eclectic piano duet program that bridges diverse musical worlds. Centered on the musical dialogue between the two pianists, the program begins with passionate tangos, moves through atmospheric and lyrical melodies, and meets the distinctive rhythms of ragtime. The program then takes on a contemporary turn with pop influences and timeless favorites, showcasing the piano's versatility through a performance filled with energy and emotional contrasts. “Piano Duet”: “From Tango to Pop”

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. Beginning in Berlin, his idea demonstrates that every city can be a place where music and culture are valued, supported and celebrated— not only through internationally renowned events, but also on a broad scale in private settings.
