Melisma, the diverse year-long series of artistic and educational workshops for individuals of all ages in Northern Evia, is back in a renewed version.

In the next phase, the programme will center on the local traditions and history of the area through arts and crafts. It will attempt to link traditional practices with modern art and creative expression, with the goal of developing and producing a fresh piece of music theater through a creative process. This new music theatre piece will focus on a contemporary perspective regarding the various local musical traditions, dances, mores and customs, contrasts, and shared elements from the broader region of Northern Evia.

Moreover, the upcoming cycle of the Melisma programme will feature a series of events (concerts, dance performances, projections, etc.) scheduled to take place in various villages across Northern Evia. These events aim to bring local residents closer to opera, dancing, and the repertoire of the Greek National Opera.

Melisma is funded by the Ministry of Culture
