Callas Tribute | Athens | February 9
Marking the 100-year anniversary of Maria Callas’ birth, the Athens Symphony Orchestra and Choir, under the baton of Sebastiano Rolli, take the stage at the same theater where the celebrated Greek opera singer made her debut in 1941, performing a minor role in the operetta “Boccaccio,” at the age of 17. For the anniversary show at the Olympia Theater (www.oly.gr) on February 9, the ensemble will be presenting highlights from a stellar career that was cut short by her premature death in 1977.
