Βοdy Μusic

Between June 21-23 Summer Nostos Festival visitors have the chance to participate in an interactive Body Music Workshop, under the supervision of Thanos Daskalopoulos.

Indonesia’s Kecak, the Zapateado and Palmas of Flamenco, the African-American Ηambone and stepping, all use the body as the primary medium of musical and dancing expression. The combination of those dancing principles with modern artistic approaches, form a new independent way of expression, which uses exclusively the human body in order to create music and dance at the same time.

Thanos Daskalopoulos is a dancer, choreographer and instructor with a remarkable international presence. As the main representative of Βody Μusic in Greece, his work is based on music expressed through the sounds of the body and percussive movement, playing and mixing different music styles such as jazz, funk, afro and Latin, along with oriental and Balkan elements.
