Scorpios Mykonos
Hosted by Valeron whose name is synonymous with the local club scene, joined on stage by guest virtuosos from around the world, this Saturday night program is both a highly ambitious and all-absorbing endeavor as it aims at cultivation of a composite and truly universal genre, no less, which combines music of different cultural origins and traditions.
An omnipresent hero of the local scene, Valeron combines traditional Greek instruments with electronic beats. Recently, he has been exporting his skills internationally through bookings in South Africa, Germany, and Switzerland.
Vassilis Saleas is one of Greece’s top clarinet players, performing with such names as Mikis Theodorakis, Dionisis Savopoulas, and Stamatis Spanoudakis. Along with his band, he aims to educate listeners on the traditional elements of Greek folk music while demonstrating his virtuoso skills.
