"One Inch of Love" At Theatre Of The No

Theatre of the NO, Athens' first English speaking theatre, presents the musical duo «Polypala», featuring Andreas Polyzogopoulos (trumpet, effects) and Giorgos Palamiotis (bass, effects). On Saturday, January 25th , at 22:30 the duo will take the stage to perform both new material and compositions from their debut album, "One Inch of Love" , a work deeply inspired by nature and dedicated to reconnecting with the natural world.

Through their compositions, the duo creates a new musical "language", capturing the unique, archetypal essence of the Greek landscape, transcending geographical and social boundaries. Their music is influenced by artists such as Harold Budd and Brian Eno, as well as traditional Indonesian gamelan and Japanese gagaku orchestras.

The track titles reference real locations, such as Keros and Mt. Takao, natural phenomena like Apiary Wind and Solstice, and dreamlike moments such as A Cloud Passes Behind the Moon and Trees Breathing by the Sea.

As the artists themselves explain: "The album was recorded under an olive tree at Panagiotis’ apiary, in Tasia and Nikola’s olive grove in Langada, Amorgos, and in the park of Plato’s Academy in Athens. We hope to share some of the images that stayed with us and the emotions we experienced throughout this project."
