Spyros Samaras
Opera in three acts
Concert version
Olympia is proud to resume the journey into the musical world of Spyros Samaras, the masterful Greek composer of Verism. After last year’s triumph of “Lionella”, conductor Byron Fidetzis assumes the challenge to present a new orchestration of the opera “Medgé”, since the original one is considered to be lost. The opera is sung in French, based on the original libretto by Pierre Elzéar , and it is an admirable achievement for the 22-year-old Samaras. The vigour and rich melodic invention of the score are to be performed by an exceptional cast of both Greek and French singers.
