I believe in his case he would take the chance to perform at other traditional concerts/events occurring throughout Northern Greece, rather than solo concerts. Likely not a concert or event at the behest of or in any way related to the church

Solun I was there recently and I absolutely loved it.. very interesting though no specific details of the Macedonians who fought and died in that war, there was alot of French military hardware and uniforms.

Bulgarian Prisoners-Of-War are also burried here.

The only mistake of the article is that we don't call it Zeitenlik anymore, and I heard of this name today for the first time in my life. We just call it "Allies Cemetery". If a Serb comes to town, it is a must to visit the Cemetery. Greeks are rather indifferent to it. Sometimes, we attend concerts IN the cemetery.

I've seen that cemetery on a Serbian documentary. Having said that on the Vardar side of Macedonia it seems that our suffering in WWI was completely erased by Serb and communist governments with the exception of novo selo

Btw would you know if there is an online archive of the Serbian cemetery?
