Performing at the Hellenic Museum of Michigan

Michael Malis and Constantine Novotny present Another Shore, Another Country, a program that highlights the Greek diaspora. The show will center on Malis's original song cycle, which is based on the poetry of C.P. Cavafy, the seminal poet of the Greek diaspora. They will also perform traditional songs in an intimate, stripped-down setting, evoking the beauty and majesty of Greece.

Pianist and composer Michael Malis is a recipient of Greek America Foundation's 40 Under 40 Award. His music has been described as "downright transcendental" and he has shared the stage with luminaries such as Marcus Belgrave, Marion Hayden, Tyshawn Sorey, and many others.

Constantine Novotny is a baritone who has performed with Apollo's Fire Singers, American Bach Soloists, Audivi, and many others. He has performed at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, and St. John the Divine Cathedral.
