It’s been 20 years since the writer, journalist and politician Teodor Keko passed away and he was remembered in a special evening at the Orthodox Cathedral. Poetry, song, music and ballet, a poetic inspiration brought together well-known stage artists.

Over 4 decades of unconditional love, since December 1981, when they had their first meeting, which would give the student friendship another direction, Julie, his wife keeps alive the memory of her husband, Teodor Keko…

For the warm words he carved in prose and his poetry, conveying the truth in newspapers of the time, adding finesse to his writing, his unmistakable speeches in the Parliament, as an unusual deputy, Teodor Keko was remembered on Thursday evening in the Orthodox Cathedral, through his verses.

Luiza Xhuvani, Kastriot Çaushi, and Kristian Koroveshi gave voice to Teodor Keko’s poetry, with the sounds of pianist Etrita Ibrahimi and ballet performances by Semela Skëndereasi.

Singer-songwriter Ardit Gjebrea was also invited, who performed on the piano, Keko’s poems and songs. Minister of Culture Elva Margariti attended the event, considering Keko’s poem as a monument of speech.

The evening in the Cathedral created a poetic inspiration.
