With the delightful voices of Giorgis Christodoulou and Eleonora Roussou leading the way, and the Cyprus Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Alkis Baltas, music and storytelling come together in the most exciting way. Joining us on this adventure are three charming heroes: an ugly prince, a speedy rabbit, and a determined turtle!<\/p>\n<p>A person\u2019s beauty lies not in physical appearance, but in the kindness of the heart. The tale <strong>\u201cThe Ugly Prince\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 written by Galateia Kazantzaki, first wife of Nicos Kazantzakis \u2013 reminds us of this great truth. Conductor and composer Alkis Baltas has lovingly adapted the text and curated the incidental music to the tale which comprises Franz Schubert\u2019s \u201cUnfinished\u201d<em> Symphony no. 8 and his <\/em>German Dance in Anton Webern\u2019s arrangement. <em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The story of Aesop\u2019s well-known fable <em><strong>\u201cThe Hare and the Tortoise\u201d<\/strong><\/em> is simple and fun. The speedy hare and the slow, steady tortoise decide to have a race. But who do you think will win? Through this tale, Aesop (625\u2013560 BC) shows us that it\u2019s not good to be boastful, and we should never underestimate anyone or make fun of others who may seem weaker. He also reminds us that being strong or fast is not enough to win in life. What really helps us reach our goals is patience and keeping on trying, no matter what!<\/p>\n<p>In between the storytelling, a selection of beloved songs by Mikis Theodorakis, Spyridon Xyndas, Costas Cacoyannis, Dimitris Maragkopoulos and Alkis Baltas will be heard, as well as a traditional song from the Dodecanese and two songs by George Hadjipieris from the much-loved song series <em>\u201cThe Lazy Dragon.\u201d<\/em> The orchestration is by Alkis Baltas, while the story of the fable has been adapted by Vicky Stylianou.
