About this audio guide
This guide to the Thessaloniki Concert Hall starts on the city's waterfront in the spring of twenty twenty, when sunshine over the Thermaic Gulf and a stay-at-home order pulled the city in opposite directions. It follows police loudhailers and a government minister's order for the promenade. Stand on the seaward side, between the two buildings, to hear it best.
