A community of Music & Research

Musical traditions of Greece, the Balkans and the Eastern Mediterranean, and their contemporary expressions

The idea started in the summer of 2020 in Thessaloniki, in response to the need to create a community of musical expression and creation that will form a key reference point for the cultural, educational and research ecosystem of the city.
