Madeira Mandolin Festival: international concert

The mandolin, or bandolim, has deep roots in Madeira, and the island’s mandolin festival brings players from around the world every year. For its eleventh edition, the international concert pairs Suzuna Takahashi on mandolin, from Japan, with Sotiris Athanasiou on classical guitar, from Greece. Both are winners of the Reuven International Mandolin Competition at the URI Guitar and Mandolin Festival 2025.

The setting is intimate: the museum dedicated to the brothers Henrique and Francisco Franco, a sculptor and a painter, in central Funchal.
