Akra Festival
Ηράκλειο αποκτά το πρώτο φεστιβάλ αυτοσχεδιαστικής μουσικής. Δύο βράδια, έξι παραστάσεις, μουσική που δεν επαναλαμβάνεται. Τα «άκρα» είναι τα σημεία όπου κάτι αρχίζει ή τελειώνει. Το φεστιβάλ αυτοσχεδιασμού AKRA εξερευνά το διάστημα ανάμεσα στα σημεία αυτά, τη στιγμή της δημιουργίας του έργου. Heraklion gets its first improvised music festival. Two nights, six performances, music that will never be repeated. AKRA improvisation festival explores the space between those points, the moment of a work’s creation.
