The International Music Festival "Evmelia" was a dream of the Greek concert pianist Dino Mastroyiannis for many years, which has been accomplished with the full support of the Porphyrogenis Foundation in Agria-Volos.
Its main purpose is to organize concerts of the highest artistic quality, equal in many cases to the concerts of many of the most famous festivals in Europe.
In these concerts are involved mainly young musicians from around the world, who dispose a really high artistic level.
Most of the concert-programs are extremely interested and original, and they have been carefully selected by Dino Mastroyiannis himself.
All the concerts are streamed live online for the first time in Greece, in order that the international audiences hear directly the voice of the “Evmelia” Festival.
