One more fantastic event! 
5 days full of music, experience, fun and new friendships! A unique atmosphere between musicians, teachers and students that help exchanging knowledge and information.

Great concerts full of people, valuable master classes, a competition with promising young talents and of course … a great guitar orchestra!!!. 

All that in a blessed place,  Hermoupolis of Syros island, a town that helps culture and music to grow!

We all renew our date for the next year festival, the 18th.
