Mouskouri honoured by the mayor
NANA Mouskouri (photo), the famed Greek singer, was given a Gold Merit Medal on July 23. Mayor Nikitas Kaklamanis presented her with the award at a ceremony at city hall and praised her "inspirational" talent and "extensive contribution to the music and culture" of Greece. Upon presentation of the medal, a saxophonist played Mouskouri's classic song "Paper Moon", which was sung by a female choir. Speaking without prepared notes, the visibly moved singer told the group she was "proud to be in our country and honoured by you".
