“No More Melodies”
Saturday, October 17th
Theatre of the NO
Acclaimed guitarist and composer Makis Ablianitis presents his new project “No More Melodies” on Saturday, October 17 at 21.30 at Theatre of the NO. A live musical experience where jazz meets funk and rock, through free improvisation, an electric sound and the creative interaction of three musicians on stage.
Joining him, Giannis Monos on Hammond organ and vocals brings his own distinctive musical identity to the project, combining virtuosity, deep musicality and a strong stage presence. On drums, George Maniatis completes the trio with outstanding technique and a tight, dynamic rhythmic sound.
Following the release of his sixth solo album, “Earthbounds – The Music of Makis Ablianitis Remixed,” Makis Ablianitis returns with a programme based almost entirely on new original compositions.
The sound of “No More Melodies” moves beyond the boundaries of the traditional jazz guitar. Electric guitar and effects create a dynamic, contemporary sonic landscape, drawing strong influences from the “golden era” of funk and rock, while improvisation remains at the heart of the musical experience.
