La révolution grecque (Berlioz)

Three different centuries (the 19th , 20th and 21st), three different composers (Berlioz, Kalomiris and Gourzi), three different styles, three different works. However, they all share the same —or at least a similar— thematic starting point: Greek heroism as manifested in the 1821 Revolution (and elsewhere), and in Leventia as an ethical stance and approach to living. A ‘high-toned’ concert as emotionally charged and glorious as the Greek struggle for freedom demands.
