With more than 10,000 performances all over the world, she has comes to Cyprus after her concert on 5th July at Herodion, Athens, this time to sing her “Myth”. The myth that started with a Paper Moon and eventually realised everything she had dreamed of. The myth that has linked her forever with Manos Hatzidakis, Nikos Gatsos and Melina Merkouri, who were her musical “lighthouses” in the seas of the world. Their “presence” in the concert will therefore be more noticeable, as these songs remain for her the most precious belongings.
