Le Choeur Du Canto

Canto General


Pablo Neruda’s General Song, in which the peoples of Latin America cry out for justice and dignity, has been remastered by Theodorakis into an epic appeal for democracy and freedom. A masterful coupling of poetry and music, Canto General speaks straight to the hearts of  listeners and has for many years served as a steady source of inspiration for artists around the world.


This year a large and top-class choir from faraway Brittany visits Greece to present this emblematic work on the occasion of the famed composer’s 90th birthday anniversary.
