Greek traditional music workshop

A “Workshop of Greek Traditional Music” will take place once per month in the cozy environment of ‘Art Base’ with the main idea of creating a new music ensemble in Brussels. An ensemble inspired by the Greek tradition and the musical elements that keep it alive till now, under the guidance of Panos Skouteris.Briefly, the aim is to educate and share general & technical knowledge about the instrumental approach and the functionality of the different instruments in the many musical expressions of Greece’s traditional music, all this within the structure of a music ensemble. The repertoire of the workshops will be various and diverse. Tunes from both mainland and island-side of Greece will be presented and adjusted to the needs of the ensemble.A few words about Panos SkouterisPanos Skouteris is born and raised in Athens in 1997.
