In this episode of Europe Talks Back, we travel to Greece, where renowned musician Dimitris Mystakidis ignites deserted Greek villages with the power of music, as he resolutely strives to bring life and community back to these abandoned spaces, despite political interference and the challenges of revitalisation. Reporting for this episode by Jenny Tsiropoulou.
Music cannot fix the structural issues that have made them empty in the first place. But what it can do is help shape people who could go on to change the world. - Dimitris Mystakidis
