Toundas Forever - Melbourne

Experience the timeless sounds of Greece as Estudiantina of Melbourne takes the stage at The Wesley Anne for a special night dedicated to the music of Panayiotis Toundas — one of the great pioneers of the Smyrna School and a defining voice of pre-war Greek popular song.

Toundas' music, shaped the early rebetiko style and captured the spirit of that era. Estudiantina of Melbourne will bring his songs to life with their signature mix of authenticity and warmth, performing on traditional instruments including bouzouki, oud, violin, accordion, and guitar.

Join us in the welcoming surrounds of The Wesley Anne for an evening of evocative melodies and stories from the cafés and tavernas of old Smyrna and Athens — a heartfelt celebration of one of Greece's most enduring musical legacies.
