In their signature polyphonic style, Nostos celebrate the unique singing traditions of the both the Greek-speaking minorities who live in the Balkans and surrounding region, and the various minorities and minority languages within Greece itself.

This year, all proceeds of the concert will be donated to the Greek School of Oxford.

Nostos ("return home") is Oxford's Greek polyphonic vocal ensemble, founded in 2012, and led by Metaxia Pavlakou. A regular highlight of its calendar is its annual concert. Last year's Songs of Life, Love and Lament was a sell-out success and raised hundreds for Médecins Sans Frontièrs.
