PLÉIADES / PERSEPHASSA – Iannis Xenakis

The Percussions de Strasbourg will take over the stage of the Thessaloniki Concert Hall, to play two of Xenakis’ great classics, Pléiades and Persephassa.
Pléiades, is one of the most beautiful pieces written by Iannis Xenakis. The richness of the timbres, the freedom and coherence of the composition make this work a unique rhythmic adventure.
Persephassa has established itself as a definitive classic of the percussion repertoire. It was premiered in 1969 in Iran by its dedicatees, the Percussions de Strasbourg.
