live at THEATRE OF THE NO
The Open Jazz Fusion Ensemble of the Department of Music Studies at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens presents a musical event dedicated to the work of the Greek Fusion Orchestra by composer Kyriakos Sfetsas, on Sunday, March 29, at the Theatre of the No.
The ensemble, consisting of students with a strong interest in contemporary jazz, improvisation, and intercultural musical forms, approaches this repertoire under the orchestration and direction of Telemachos Moussas. The presentation focuses on highlighting the complex musical language that characterized the Greek Fusion Orchestra. Through the collaboration of Western and traditional instruments such as saxophones, trumpets, electric guitar, piano, drums, double bass, violin, oud, and percussion, the group explores the music of the GFO with a multi-stylistic and research-oriented perspective.
The artistic direction of the evening is undertaken by Telemachos Moussas, who curates the reconstruction of the material, honoring the significant compositional legacy of Kyriakos Sfetsas through this ensemble.
The philosophy of the ensemble centers on cultivating collective musical dialogue and orchestral precision. At the same time, it encourages participants to develop their artistic identity through improvisation and creative experimentation on the innovative structures of the Greek Fusion Orchestra. This event offers an evening where tradition meets contemporary musical creation, and improvisational freedom serves as a bridge between different cultural and musical idioms.
