About this event
Often called ‘eclectic’ and ‘postmodern’, Christos Hatzis feels that labels always betray substance and shies away from them. He thinks of his music as ‘reverberant spirituality’ and constantly searches for the ultimate common root of our human psyche, unifying and celebrating the diversity above ground.
FARLS is hosted by the University of Saskatchewan Department of Music. Learn more.
