Gus G.’s concert at the Athens Concert Hall is one of the most highly anticipated musical events of the year. The internationally renowned Greek virtuoso guitarist, Gus G, known for his impact on the Heavy Metal scene and beyond, will take the stage on February 19, 2025, at the grand hall of the Athens Concert Hall, offering the audience a unique fusion of Rock and symphonic music.

The concert, which is already sold out, will be presented in collaboration with the Camerata – Friends of Music Orchestra, under the direction of George Petrou. The event aims to highlight the dialogue between traditional symphonic music and the dynamic energy of Rock, as demonstrated by the evening’s program.

Rehearsals have already begun, and on Sunday, February 16, Gus G shared photos from his rehearsals with the orchestra at the Athens Concert Hall. Through these images, the audience can get a first glimpse of what is to come, showcasing the artist’s commitment to quality and innovation.

The evening’s program will feature two significant musical pieces. Philip Glass’ “Symphony No. 4 – Heroes,” based on David Bowie and Brian Eno’s album “Heroes,” represents a modern dialogue between minimal music and Progressive Rock concepts. Additionally, Jon Lord’s “Sarabande” for symphony orchestra and Rock band stands as one of the most iconic crossover works in the history of music.

A globally recognized guitarist, Gus G has left an indelible mark not only as Ozzy Osbourne’s guitarist but also as the founder of FIREWIND, a band that has excelled on the international music scene for 25 years.

The collaboration between Gus G and the Camerata – Friends of Music Orchestra, under the artistic direction of George Petrou, is a testament to the universal and timeless nature of music, capable of uniting artists and audiences beyond all boundaries.
