and Religious Affairs
In the following months, the Greek
National Opera holds great moments
in store for you, featuring acclaimed
theatre directors, opera singers of
worldwide reputation and emblematic
works of the international opera
repertoire.
Giuseppe Verdi's La Traviata, one of
the most famous stories of passionate
love, conducted by Elias Voudouris
and classically staged by Nikos S.
Petropoulos rings the curtain down
on the winter season at the Olympia
Theatre.
The first major opera staged at the
Odeon of Herodes Atticus is Giacomo
Puccini's masterpiece, Tosca in a
production that was a great success
of the Greek National Opera when it
was first staged in the summer of 2012,
having received raving reviews. Three
years later, this spectacular production
makes its comeback on 14 June, in the
same venue. It will be conducted by
Lukas Karytinos and directed by Hugo
de Ana, in the framework of the Athens
Festival at the Roman Odeon.
Later on, I will have the honour of
conducting the Greek National Opera
Orchestra and Chorus for our second
grand aestival production at the Odeon:
the legendary Carmen by Georges
Bizet, the most celebrated opera of
the French repertoire, permeated
by the explosive character of the
heroine, as well as by the exquisite
arias. The production will be directed
by the distinguished British director
and Artistic Director of the Göteborg
Opera, Stephen Langridge.
The Suitcase Opera continues visiting
different cities across Greece in the
framework of the programme “Journey
to the Stavros Niarchos Foundation
Cultural Center”. Amidst our other
artistic events the ambitious, GNO
outdoor concert in the archaeological
site of the Olympieion in the centre
of Athens, entitled Overtures and
Duets, stands out. Also, our educational
actions continue relentlessly whereas
the programme of the season is
complemented by the presentation
of the Studio Opera, the annual
performance of the Professional Dance
School, as well as the performance
of GNO's new ballet choreographers.

following pages.
We would like to thank you
wholeheartedly for supporting our
efforts at the Greek National Opera!

With the Orchestra, Chorus and Ballet members of the GNO
The GNO's winter season at the Olympia Theatre comes to a close with the most celebrated
La Traviata by Verdi; the tragic tale of "the lady of the camelias" will be performed in the classic
staging by Nikos S. Petropoulos. Beloved arias and duets embellish one of the most favourite
stories of great love, thwarted by social conventions. The opera recounts the love of a courtesan
for the offspring of a well-to-do family. The affair brings about the reaction of the young man's
family; the couple is separated, only to meet again just before Violetta, the "lady of the camelias",
perishes. It is an undeniable masterwork of the operatic repertoire.

With the Orchestra, Chorus and Children's Chorus
of the GNO within the framework of its educational program
Tosca: An opera diva, a woman who is madly in love and pathologically jealous of her lover.
Scarpia: a sinister personality, a man of absolute power who takes pleasure from seeing his
victims in pain. Mario Cavaradossi, who is a pure patriot and Tosca's lover, stands between these
two and is led to death; not on account of his ideas but because he enjoys the love of Tosca,
the object of Scarpia's desire. Scarpia's scheme is brilliantly set up; nobody escapes his traps.
This is a thriller full of wild passions that are accentuated by Giacomo Puccini's overwhelming
music. Justifiably it is one of the most famous operas. This scored a great success for the Greek
National Opera when it was first presented in the summer of 2012 at the Odeon of Herodes
Atticus. The GNO Orchestra will be conducted by Lukas Karytinos.

Carmen, one of the most emblematic operas, still challenges its audience as much as when it
was first staged, 140 years ago. The eponymous heroine defends her freedom and her right to
choose her lovers instead of her being chosen by them. She is a menace for patriarchic societies, dominated by men. Her choices threaten the foundation of these societies. The only solution is to exterminate her; a task that is undertaken by the love-stricken and "betrayed" Don
José. The unconventional plot met by George Bizet's equally unconventional, and today most
celebrated, music. The most popular opera of the French repertoire, featuring wonderful arias
and superb choruses, will be conducted by the Artistic Director of the Greek National Opera,
Myron Michailidis, and directed by the distinguished British director and Artistic Director of the
Göteborg Opera, Stephen Langridge.

Conductor Elias Voudouris
Soloists Alexia Voulgaridou (soprano), Myrtò Papatanasiu (soprano), Andrew Haji (tenor)
The Greek National Opera pays tribute to the legendary Teresa Stratas, the Greek-Canadian
soprano, who has enjoyed an immense international career. Stratas starred in 385 performances at the New York Metropolitan Opera, whereas in her 36-year-long career she undertook
41 different roles and at the same time she performed in the most important opera houses
of the world. She was the daughter of Greek immigrants from Crete and started her stunning
career in 1958, in Toronto-Canada. She is considered one of the world's best opera singers of
the 20th century, but also a legend of opera because her fairytale-like life and her philanthropic
activity urged many people to compare her with the opera heroines she embodied in such a
gripping manner.
Two major and internationally acclaimed Greek sopranos, Alexia Voulgaridou and Myrtò Papatanasiu, feature at the GNO's tribute, singing arias that bear the stamp of Stratas. In the framework of the first joint performance between the GNO and the Canadian Opera Company, the
Canadian tenor Andrew Haji also appears with them.
The event will take place with the kind support of the Canadian Embassy in Athens, the Canadian Opera Company and the Metropolitan Opera Guild. With the participation of the GNO
Orchestra.

Orpheus in the Underworld is a landmark in the history of operetta, for one of the biggest accomplishments of Jacques Offenbach, a composer who since the mid-19th century contributed
more than anyone else to the triumphant success of the genre of operetta. The original version
of Orphée was composed in 1858 and marks Offenbach's first treatment of Greek mythology.
The Olympian gods are represented as promiscuous merrymakers of Paris of the 19th century
and therefore Orpheus in the Underworld is a comment, which in fact remains classic, of the
social mores and immorality of the upper class and aristocracy. The operetta is staged by the
Opera Studio of the Greek National Opera and is directed by Stephan Grögler. Indeed, this
is the first, abridged version of the work's presentation that is in progress. Its full version will
be staged during the coming season by the GNO's ensembles. Nikos Vassiliou, the Director of
Studies, is the répétiteur and conductor of the project.

This is a recent custom of Athens, aspiring to establish the Green National Opera's outdoor
summer concerts in the enthralling space of Olympieion, amidst the Columns of the Olympian
Zeus, in the centre of Athens. Following the great success of the first concert entitled Opera
alla Greca that took place last year, this year the GNO revisits the place with the performance
Overtures and Duets, featuring major operas from the world repertoire. The GNO Orchestra
and important Greek soloists will take us on a journey of classic compositions created by Verdi,
Puccini, Rossini, Mozart and others.
With members of the GNO Ballet and members of the Dance School
This is the third season in a row that the Opera encounters Fashion. Il sogno (i.e. The Dream)
is the title of this season's production, based on a concept of the journalist Isma Toulatos, who
also has the overall supervision of this project. The production is directed by the multitalented
Konstantinos Rigos. This year's guest is the great lady of Greek fashion, Loukia. Dimitris Giakas
is once more the music supervisor. The performers' transformation is supervised by the famous
make-up artist Achilleas Charitos.
The project Opera and Fashion aspires to combine Opera with Haute couture in a balanced and
creative manner in order to underline the contemporary nature and great potential of these two
worlds to converge. The performance attempts to demonstrate further the complete, contemporary and classic character of opera and the numerous, perhaps still unknown, possibilities of
approaching other domains with the aim to open up to new fields and attract a new audience
without, compromising its level of aesthetics.
