Nana Mouskouri was presented with the City of Athens Gold Medal of Merit at the City Hall. A few hours before Nana Mouskouri was to appear at the Herod Atticus theatre for her farewell concert, bringing to a close a 50-years career featuring more than 350 gold and platinum albums and 300 million album sales globally. Athens was the final venue of Mouskouri’s Farewell World Tour that she embarked on in June 2007.

In the ceremony at Athens City Hall Mouskouri said: “I believe that if music did not exist, I would not be here today… Mr Mayor and dear friends, I would like to say that I was honoured the moment I was born in this land and began to live with this love within me. I loved our country very much because it endured a great deal…”

“Music lent me wings so I could dream and find the love I was searching for in this world… I always dreamed of something better, about love, happiness and even the happiness we could give to others. So I exchanged and shared, and the honour I am receiving today is something I will never forget…”

Berlin Mayor Klaus Wowereit and Luxembourg Mayor Paul Helminger attended the ceremony, as guests of the Mayor of Athens, as well as the Ambassadors of France, Belgium, Denmark, Luxembourg and Slovenia, and the charges d’ affaires of Spain, Germany, Estonia, Cyprus, Latvia, Poland and Sweden. The dignitaries also attended Nana Mouskouri’s final farewell concert Thursday night.

Greece: Nana Mouskouri’s farewell concert




© Nana Mouskouri

Last Wednesday, July 23rd, Nana Mouskouri gave her farewell concert in her homeland, Greece, more precisely at the Odeon Herodes Atticus, close to the Acropolis in Athens.

French website orange.fr reports about this very special moment in the career of an artist: “A lot of politicians, including Greek Prime minister Kostas Karamanlis, were there. Nana thanked her fellow citizens and performed a selection of classical, jazz, traditional and pop pieces as well as her own biggest hits".

Earlier the same day, she was awarded a golden medal from Athens’ mayor, in presence of the Berlin and Luxembourg mayors.

Since she declared she wants to give an end to her carer, Nana Mouskouri got involved in a three-years international tour to say bye-bye to all of her fans.

Nana Mouskouri represented Luxembourg at the Eurovision Song Contest in 1963, with the song A force de prier and placed 8th.
