This will be the 64-year-old second concert to perform in Egypt.

In 2015, the Greek composer performed his first-ever concert in Egypt at the Great Pyramid of Giza, as well as provided the country with an unrivaled opportunity to promote Egypt abroad.

He filmed a short movie comprised of his visit to the country’s most popular tourist attractions, following an agreement with Egypt's former Tourism Minister Hesham Zaazou.
