The Greek island of Folegandros, a much-loved destination for the restless and the artistic, is bringing jazz to its shores with the Anemi Jazz Festival on July 28-30 aspiring to become a unique opportunity to bring people closer through music.

Some of Greece’s finest performers/soloists including Spyros Manesis, Thomas Konstantinou, Christos Rafalides and Petros Klampanis (Point 2 project) and the eminent singer Dimitra Galani featuring Chronos Project will take the stage during the three-day festival which will focus on alternative jazz and songs written by Greece’s leading poets and composers with instrumentations that uniquely show the influence of the East and the West on Greek music.
