In his unique way and through the musical bridges that "stray suddenly from repetition and diverge from the main road" Foivos Delivorias tackled the theme of TEDxPatras 2023, "Bridging Within". The beloved songwriter and performer shared reflections on what has served as "bridges" in his personal journey, discussing the nature of art as a journey-a path that connects the start to the destination, the sender to the receiver. Foivos Delivorias highlighted that, whether on the speaking or listening side, the journey requires study and profound solitude, but also companionship and vibrant social interaction. "Wherever you find yourself, never forget the bridge that crosses to the other side. And all the 'other sides' of the world, are right here". Fivos was born in Kallithea, Athens, in 1973. Having taken classical guitar lessons with Orfeas Peridis, in 1989, he presented his compositions to Manos Hadjidaki, leading to the release of his debut album, ‘THE PARADE’ under the label ‘Sirios’. Since then, he has consistently released albums that have firmly established him as one of the most significant Greek songwriters. His work is characterized by a distinct personal style, a unique and confessional lyricism, and a continuously evolving sound. Developing a songwriting language entirely on his own, he narrates everyday life with direct and poetic expressions, capturing the essence and history of his generation. He has become a pivotal figure in Greek music through timeless stories that resonate with all of us”. He is also responsible for a series of original and very successful live performances and concerts over the years, some of which he collaborated with important creators from various areas of Art. In the summer of 2017, he created the “Terrace of Phoebus”, a modern multi-spectacle that writes its own story on Athenian nights every summer. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
