I Kardia tou Frédéric Chopin and the period furniture

In its official presentation of the production, Thessaloniki Concert Hall names Arzoumanidis as the company responsible for the period furniture that furnished the stage and accompanied the tour. This performance at the Concert Hall took place on 24 February 2024 in the Aimilios Riadis Hall, M2.

The company is also mentioned in the TrikalaFocus article published on 12 March 2024 about the performance scheduled at the Trikala Cultural Centre on 29 March 2024.

Music, letters and theatrical storytelling

The tribute connected the composer’s music with his life. Dimitris Lalos portrayed Chopin through his letters, while Tatiana Papageorgiou performed his works on the piano. The Concert Hall’s presentation also mentions the participation of a string ensemble. The audience thus encountered the composer through two parallel paths: his personal words and his musical compositions.

According to the same official source, Tatiana Papageorgiou adapted and translated the texts after studying material in the Chopin archive in Warsaw. Elisavet Papageorgiou was responsible for the dramatisation, sets and costumes. The programme included études, preludes, mazurkas and nocturnes, bringing different aspects of the composer’s work into the narrative.

The reference to period furniture provides a specific connection between the production and Arzoumanidis. The furniture framed a stage setting devoted to music and Romanticism. For visitors who know the company mainly through its collections for the home, this collaboration presents a different use of classic furniture.
