March 6, 2025
The Chairman of the House Control Committee, Zacharias Koulis, requested financial support for the Cyprus Symphony Orchestra amid allegations of mismanagement by the Foundation's Board. Parents are forced to cover expenses, and there are reports of intimidation of the orchestra staff. The academy of the orchestra is reportedly no longer promoted by the state, raising concerns among parents. The Ministry of Culture stated it will not close the academy but it is not a priority.
