Aman molli: Concert of rebetiko from Piraeus and Smyrna (Eirini Zogali, Yvonne Melissa, Panos Tsamouras)

Saturday 14 December 2024, Aman molli: Concert of rebetiko from Piraeus and Smyrna (Eirini Zogali, Yvonne Melissa, Panos Tsamouras). The doors will open at 8pm, and music will start at 9 pm.

Three talented young musicians, Eirini Zogali, Yvonne Melissa and Panos Tsamouras, present a repertoire of rebetiko from Piraeus and Smyrna. Favorite compositions from the beginning of the 20th century will be performed.
Eirini Zogali was born in 1997 in Corinth, Greece. Her relationship with music started at the age of 7 with the classical guitar. This first contact led her to audition for the music school of her hometown, in which she graduated in 2015 with a new instrument in hand, the bouzouki.
In 2019, when starting a semester as an exchange student in the Codarts Conservatoire in Rotterdam, Eirini also joined Aman Molli events, performing numerous times at Joe’s Garage and later giving Rebetiko workshops. Since September 2024 based in Athens, Eirini is back for a few dates in Brussels, Paris, Rotterdam, Utrecht and Amsterdam.

They want to create a mosaic of their musical and non-musical experiences associated with this genre, and convey the atmosphere that made them love it.
Mosaic members are Athina Anagnostou (voice), Katerina Bogiatzi (bouzouki, voice) and Athina Koumela (guitar, voice). Special guest appearance by Yvonne Melissa on violin.
The doors will open at 8pm, and music will start at 9 pm. Towards the end of the concert, there will be space to join the musicians on stage for a jam, so bring your instruments!
