Angelos and Eva Sikelianos Museum

The representation of Pyrrhic dance, the ancient Greek war dance, where warriors-dancers were holding a shield and spear and were wearing a helmet, was included in the program of both Delphic Festivals. The performance was held at the Ancient Stadium of Delphi, with the participation of teenage athletes from Athens and Thessaloniki. The Pyrrhic dance was presented on the second day of the First Delphic Festivals on 10 May 1927, at the Ancient Stadium, in music by Constantinos Psachos and choreography by Thanos Veloudios. The contribution of the choreographer Hans Schaider and his choreographer wife was significant.

Eva and Angelos Sikelianos  was a beautiful couple of the early of 20th century in Greek society. Eva was the 'core' of the charismatic couple. Angelos, of course, was a great personality but both inspired a whole society in a unique cultural event of Delphic Festivals.
