Overview

Maestro Yiannis Hadjiloizou returns to Markideio Theatre in Paphos for one more take on the world’s ever favourite mass, the Mozart Requiem. It was with the same work back in 2012 that Maestro Hadjiloizou had the Orphean Singers Cyprus experience their first concert with an orchestra, at a full house and a superb performance at The Annabelle, with Soprano Irina Zeniou, Mezzo Ellie Aloneftou, Tenor Antonios Koutroupis, and Baritone Andreas Iacovides. The Cyprus Philharmonic Orchestra, an establishment of the conductor himself, was again onstage.

The Maestro returns to Markideio with Franz Xaver Süssmayr’s completion of Mozart’s emblematic work for a third time, with Australian-Cypriot Soprano Christiana Aloneftis, Russian Mezzo Anastasia Maximova, Palestinian-British Tenor Marwan Shamiyeh, and Cypriot Baritone Yiorgo Ioannou.

The Cyprus Philharmonic Orchestra and Hadjiloizou last starred at the Markideio at an unforgettable Beethoven 9 treat for the Official Handover Ceremony of Pafos2017 late that year with the Philharmonia Voices and soloists Annemarie Kremer, Dina Strani, Nico Darmanin, and Kyros Patsalides. The all-star Orchestra and the Conductor last met at Pattihio Theatre Limassol and Strovolos Theatre Nicosia for Sir William Walton’s opera “The Bear” with Russian director Vassily Barkhatov.

The two reunite with the Orphean Singers in what promises to be yet another very special occasion, following the Orphean’s return from another show in Athens just a few days earlier. The first half of the concert will include Schubert’s “Unfinished” Symphony.
