SUMMARY:Athens Tales: Athens in Literature and Song
DESCRIPTION:Join the book launch and discussion of Athens Tales\, an anthology of one hundred and fifty years of Greek short fiction about Athens\, compiled and translated into English by Joshua Barley. The evening will include an illustrated presentation of the book by the translator\, and an accompanying performance of Athenian songs by mezzo-soprano Alexandra Achillea.  \nThis is the main UK launch of Athens Tales\, recently published by Oxford University Press. The book is an anthology of the last one hundred and fifty years of Greek short fiction about Athens\, comprising eighteen authors from representative periods of the city’s modern history. There are stories of war and migration\, love stories and other vignettes of Athenian life\, through which the reader traces the multiple transformations of the Greek capital. With each author bringing their own perspective as well as style\, the anthology is both an introduction to modern Greek literature as well as a portrait of Athens through its writers. At this event\, the book’s creator and translator\, Joshua Barley\, will give an illustrated talk weaving together some of the anthology’s lesser-known authors with the modern history of the city. He will be joined by special guests including the singer Alexandra Achillea\, who will perform a selection of twentieth-century Athenian songs with piano accompaniment.

SUMMARY:UK Premiere: Mary\, Marianna\, Maria: The Unsung Greek Years of Callas
DESCRIPTION:“A fascinating\, as well as moving film\, bound to be a revelation for many people” – Marie-Aude Roux\, Le Monde  \nJoin us for the UK premiere of Mary\, Marianna\, Maria: The Unsung Greek Years of Callas. The documentary sheds light on Maria Callas’ life in Greece during her early years and her coming of age as a woman and as an artist in Athens during World War II and the years after 1957 when the internationally renowned diva reconnected with Greece.  \nThe Greek National Opera’s documentary\, conceived\, researched\, and written by Vasilis Louras\, directed by Michalis Asthenidis and Vasilis Louras\, and produced by Stella Angeletou\, brings to light valuable archival material and reveals\, for the first time\, the last rehearsal recording that Maria Callas made at her home in Paris a month prior to her passing.  Her foremost artistic achievements and little-known debuts\, the figures who influenced her\, and the major landmarks in her development as an artist are all explored – as well as  the prevailing social and political circumstances in Greece during World War II\, the Greek Civil War milieu of the 1940s and 19’50s\, and the unjust attacks she endured. These key narrative threads tell the story of the troubled\, novel-like life of Callas\, who always walked the line between tragedy and triumph.  \nThis documentary seeks to tell the story of Callas’ early years – the story of a triumph achieved through strength of character and talent\, hard work and dedication\, a story that saw her defy every difficulty and the abusive behaviour she faced. We are delighted that a discussion and Q&A with directors Vasilis Louras and Michalis Asthenidis and producer Stella Angeletou will follow the screening.  \nThe event is supported by AEGEAN\, the Hellenic Centre’s official air carrier.  \nImage credit: Still from the documentary Mary\, Marianna\, Maria: The Unsung Greek Years of Callas

SUMMARY:Her Voice: A Celebration of the Women of Classical Music
DESCRIPTION:Following their sold-out performance in 2023\, the Waldstein Trio return to the Hellenic Centre with a powerful programme celebrating the often overlooked\, yet extraordinary legacy of women composers from the 19th century to the present day. \nFrom Clara Schumann to Valentina Scheldhofen Ciardelli\, this concert traces over 200 years of remarkable creativity\, showcasing the unique and compelling voices of women who composed against the grain of a male-dominated musical tradition. For too long\, their contributions were dismissed\, marginalised\, or forgotten—pushed to the periphery of concert repertoire and historical recognition. \nYet these composers\, through resilience and brilliance\, challenged the barriers set before them. Their works are filled with emotional depth\, originality\, and artistic power. This performance honours their legacy and affirms the importance of restoring women’s rightful place in the classical canon. \nJoin us in celebrating the female creative spirit—through its music\, its resilience\, and its long-overdue recognition.

SUMMARY:Jewish Music from the Hellenic Region
DESCRIPTION:Cantor Assaf Levitin is joined by pianist Naaman Wagner for an evening of deeply moving and timeless music. This concert journeys through the rich tapestry of Jewish musical heritage\, shaped by the Hellenic world\, ancient mythology\, and the enduring symbolism of the sea as a vessel of connection\, exile\, and return.  \nThe programme interweaves stories of displacement\, memory\, and belonging\, linking ancient voices with modern echoes across the shifting tides of time and culture. Alberto Hemsi’s Coplas Sefardies evoke the Judeo-Spanish heritage of Thessaloniki and Crete. Works by Fauré\, Schubert\, Barber\, and Ireland delve into the mythic and emotional depths of the sea\, conjuring themes of burden\, illusion\, and yearning. Contemporary songs by Yehuda Poliker and Corinne Alal explore memory\, migration\, and post-Holocaust identity with raw emotional power.  \nFrom haunting Sephardic ballads to rock music\, this concert offers a heartfelt musical tribute to the enduring Jewish presence in the Hellenic world.  \nThe event is supported by the Goethe-Institut London

SUMMARY:The Divided Island: Screening and Q&A
DESCRIPTION:The Divided Island brings the Cyprus issue into sharp focus\, attempting an objective perspective on this complex and long-standing conflict. With Nicosia remaining Europe’s last divided capital\, the documentary explores the aftermath of the 1974 conflict\, which left the North predominantly inhabited by Turkish Cypriots and the South by Greek Cypriots. After 50 years of stalled negotiations\, the question remains: will the island ever reunite?  \nAmid the ongoing wars against Ukraine and Palestine\, the frozen divide in Cyprus has often been forgotten. The Divided Island challenges the hostile narratives commonly seen in mainstream media\, instead seeking the truth through deeply personal interviews with those whose lives\, homes\, and country were torn apart\, alongside the voices of young Cypriots yearning for  reconciliation.  \nThis debut feature documentary is directed by Turkish Cypriot Cey Sesiguzel and co-produced by Greek Cypriot Andreas Tokkallos\, the founders of the award-winning London-based production company\, Two Fresh Productions. By offering a nuanced and unbiased understanding of the Cyprus issue\, The Divided Island fosters a narrative of hope for a peaceful future and a resolution to the ‘Cyprus problem.’  \nDirector: Cey Sesiguzel  \nProducer: Andreas Tokkallos  \nRunning Time:  90 Minutes  \nCert: 15  \nThe Q&A will be hosted by BFI Digital Production Editor and Film Programmer Georgia Korossi.  \nTickets\n\n£6/4 concession\nBooking required via Eventbrite or 020 7487 5060
