Event Details

In 2025, the Greek Ministry of Culture has designated the year as The Year of Mikis Theodorakis. As one of the most significant figures in Greek culture, Theodorakis was the first composer to set poetry to music, blending works from Greece’s most renowned poets with traditional Greek melodies, making their art accessible to all Greeks.

To honor this legacy, the Hellenic Canadian Academic Association and the Echo Reading Series will host the 4th annual Celebration of Poetry and Song.  This event will showcase the works of Mikis Theodorakis and some of his poet collaborators. We invite you to join us for this celebration at the Tranzac Club on April 13th at 8 PM. 

The talented musicians of Chijazz Band will perform, and as always, there will be an open mic session after the main program, giving budding poets a chance to share their work and poetry lovers an opportunity to read their favorites. A special thank you to our generous sponsor, the Hellenic Heritage Foundation, for supporting this event. Tickets are priced at $20 in advance and $25 at the door.
