The George & Marie Vergottis Foundation is pleased to announce another summer of musical activities to take place during the period of July 27 – August 13. For a third year in a row we will continue with our free music workshops for Kefalonia children, with classes in voice (classical singing), piano, and violin. We will also offer a range of concerts for the music-loving residents and visitors to our island, which highlight and promote the music of Greek composers from the Ionian Islands and our musical tradition.
All performances this year will be hosted at the theatre of the Philharmonic School of Kefalonia in Argostoli. Unfortunately, the Vergottis Cultural Center in Kourkoumelata suffered earthquake damage and is not allowed to host any events until the repairs are completed.
We would like to thank Mrs. Krilovici, Mrs. Zhulla, and Mr. Varvaresos for their generous offer of these free-of-charge music workshops, transferring and sharing their experience and talent to help the residents of Kefalonia. We would like to express our gratitude to the Philharmonic School of Kefalonia and its Board—particularly this year—for the continued collaboration with our Foundation and for hosting our events.
We look forward to this upcoming summer season, where we will get to see our old friends and greet new ones.
