After 50 years of song international diva Nana Mouskouri gave her last stage performance in Athens, choosing the country of her birth and one of the most beautiful ancient theatres to say her final goodbye on Wednesday(July 23).
The sold out crowd erupted in cheers and applause, giving Mouskouri a standing ovation as she stepped out onto the marbles of the five thousand seat Herod Atticus ancient theatre below the Acropolis, in her trademark black glasses.
Her repertoir included the songs that rocketed her to number one charts
worldwide, as well as those that began her career in Greece.
Among the crowd was Greece's prime minister and the mayors of Berlin,
Paris and Luxembourg who came for the performance.
The concert began with a video montage flashing back over her long career.
Mouskouri began a four year Farewell Tour in 2004, visiting 85 cities
in Europe, North and South America, Canada, and Asia.
The 73 year old artist decided to stop performing while her voice was still pleasing to audiences, she told Reuters Television, and leave the field open to the younger generation. She also mused she will not miss the stage fright.
Born in 1934 as Ioanna Mouskouri on the island of Crete, she began singing at a young age after moving to Athens with her family and attending the Athens Conservatory. She sang in her first Greek music festival at 25. Since then she never looked back with her career taking her around the world.
She is one of the world's highest selling female recording artists,
according to her official biography. She has recorded 1,500 songs in seven
languages, sold more than 300 million discs worldwide, has more than 350 gold
and platinum albums, and has received several awards.
Her fans have described her as angelic, and a songbird, with a repertoir that has included country, folk, jazz,opera, pop and world music.
She has toured with Harry Belafonte, recorded with Quincy Jones and Julio
Iglesias, and Bob Dylan wrote a song for her. She has topped the charts in
Germany, Britain and France, and still after 50 years she sang to sell-out
crowds during her Farewell Tour.
Mouskouri has dabbled in other professions as well during her career.
She presented a series on the BBC in 1968, became a goodwill ambassador for
UNICEF in 1993, while also playing her hand at politics in 1994 when she was
elected to the EU parliament.
