In the second part, more than 120 choirs and instrumentalists will take to the stage at the «Mikis Theodorakis» Open Air Theatre to present a programme dedicated to the composers

and musical genres that influenced Jani Christou. They will also perform the Latin Mass / Messa

Latina, one of Christou's earliest choral works, composed in 1953.
