On Sunday, 3rd October at 20:00, the English School celebrated the start of a new school year with a unique acoustic concert by the Alex Drakos Quartet in the school courtyard.

Music

Jazz is the starting point of the music of Alex Drakos Quartet. Their music is a blend of various musical influences, such as Rock and Pop, as well as electro and even traditional Greek music, and is combined with pre-recorded narratives and poetry. All these combinations along with improvisation result in a musical story with various "chapters" which will intrigue and interest all musical tastes.
