Noted Canadian pianist Lefevre in Athens

The Canadian embassy in Athens on Friday announced that noted Canadian pianist Alain Lefèvre will return to Athens for two solo recitals at the Michalis Cacoyannis Foundation (206 Pireos St., Tavros) on February 23 and 24 at 9 p.m. 
 
The recitals will be held in conjunction with the screenings of the film "Child Prodigy" which narrates the life of another pianist and composer, André Mathieu, a musical genius known as "little Canadian Mozart". 
 
Winner of numerous international prizes, Alain Lefèvre, is the film's music director and interpreter of Mathieu's compositions. Well known to Greek audiences from his earlier concerts at the Megaron Athens Concert Hall, the Little Epidaurus Theatre and the Kalomiri Music Festival, on this occasion Lefèvre will also perform a selection of his own compositions. 
 
Tickets: €15
