Description & Specifications

The rich intellectual legacy of Leonidas Papastefanou will nourish generations, for with his great strides he traversed many epochs.

His footprints, his fiery gaze, his deep introspection, and the flutter of love he harbored for the world, his open-hearted smile, his large hands reaching out to grasp the Impossible, have been etched in his poems, in his lyrical essays and articles, during the days of struggle when he directed the first illegal printing press of the resistance press in the pastures of Pindus during the difficult years of the Occupation.

But mainly in the music of the historical Trikala Choir, which thrived under his authority, courage, and watchful eye. He was an uncompromising visionary.

"May the storm of your soul carry you and sling you against the rocks of sorrow, isolation, and may you wait, like Prometheus with wounds in your heart, for redemption. Then you can say that you live… Everything belongs to Man. Nothing is impossible. The divine spark that each of us holds should become a flame and ignite the stars."
