She Said Sea: Fragments
Tonia Makatsianou

At the crossroads of traditional, classical and contemporary music, She Said Sea, whose core is the piano pieces of Yiannis Konstantinidis, proposes a personal way of their interpretation, through an effort to highlight the composer's traditional references but also a process of searching for new timbres of the instrument.

Sunday 28/8

21.00 // AGHIOS DIMITRIOS CHURCH
Kokowumba Binzunga vocal guitara and songs
Musicians friends...
GUESTS: Michael Afoloyan + others

We are a group of musicians from all over the world who live in Greece. Our group was formed in order to help composer Kokowumba Binzunga, a renowned Congolese composer in Africa and Europe, who has been a refugee for the past three years and has been living in refugee camps firstly in Moria and then in Volos. Our primary concern is to record a CD with him, so that he and his four-member family can have an income source to go through the adverse living conditions in the refugee camp. For the same reason we organise concerts both in Athens and Volos and we have also created a crowdfunding. In the links below you will find a brief version of his story as a refugee, how he ended up in Greece and what he has achieved to do as a refugee in Moria and in Volos. We are also in search of a lawyer and legal support in order to help him and his family claim political asylum in Greece. For your information, he has claimed political asylum three times already but all three have been rejected. We consider Kokowumba’s case as a matter of great importance in a political, cultural and social level. Any kind of legal help would be very welcome.
