Sakis Papadimitriou needs no introduction. His improvisational mastery, youthful spirit and above all his multifaceted activity in art and the letters, make him a living legend of the Greek jazz scene. Born on Labour Day in 1940, the 82-year-old jazz musician, whose radio broadcasts in the Third Programme from 1975 to 2010 and special affinity with the music for silent films have left behind a valuable legacy, never stops creating, dreaming and stirring strong emotions with his inexhaustible talent. A poetry and literature aficionado and a prose writer himself, Sakis Papadimitriou brings with him on the stage and conveys to his audiences a unique blend of experience and freshness, wistfulness and impetus, serving the very essence of jazz.
