Soundscapes Compositions in Thessaloniki

This is the soundscape of Thessaloniki, a city mapped through eight points of inspiration for eight composers from across Europe. The White Tower, the Navarinou Square, the Arch of Galerius (Kamara), the Church of the Acheiropoietos, the church of Hagia Sophia, the Roman Forum, the Aristotelous Square, and the Thessaloniki Port become milestones in a walkabout that resembles an open-air concert, “performed” for your ears only! "Soundscapes Compositions" is an artistic act that aspires to bring – local and international – audiences in touch with contemporary music, by creating new connotations in a city that continues generating stories, sounds, and walks.

Eight composers from around Europe were chosen to create short compositions, which were recorded by dissonART, an ensemble that is based in Thessaloniki and works on spreading music innovation on a global and local level. Find out more about the concert here and follow the -accessible from now on- sound walk through the “My City, My Sounds” app.
