Kyrillos Guirguis is an Australian composer who has been passionate about music since early childhood. His music is influenced by both Middle Eastern music, including Coptic Christian, and Western classical music traditions. His compositions occasionally use the Arabic and Coptic maqams (scales/modes) that utilise micro-tonality (quarter tones), giving his music a rich flavour. He enjoys orchestrating his own music, utilising principles developed by some of the great orchestrators such as Rimsky-Korsakov.

Kyrillos has been learning and playing the lute (oud) for several years. He uses the lute for most of the compositional process, which tends to focus on melody. However, his strong music theory and broad intimate knowledge with various instruments enable him to orchestrate effectively and compose for a wide variety of genres and ensembles. 

Kyrillos loves the oboe, bassoon, and the French horn, and can't resist including them in his orchestrations.

Kyrillos has only recently started to share his music with others, bringing to the world wonderful music that has deep spiritual meanings. The Valley Winds Ensemble, Massachusetts, considers him a composer with “strong compositional skills”, attesting to his abilities to write music that inspires others and appeals to both musicians and listeners alike.

One of the scholars at the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music described his compositional style as "evocative, setting him apart in the Western contemporary classical idiom".

Kyrillos is currently completing his postgraduate music studies at the Melbourne Conservatorium of Music, with a focus on music composition.

Kyrillos continues to compose inspiring music that is loved by many fans around the world. He is also pursuing opportunities to collaborate and to support others in their musical journeys.

Writing songs and pushing them out into that great black hole of cyber space. Hope it connects with one or two souls out there!

Hi there, 

I’m a music lover, plain and simple. Growing up in the 70s, I was highly influenced by songwriters of that era - Dan Fogelberg, Jim Croce, Don McLean, John Denver, Harry Chapin - to name a few; there were so many. I listened to pretty much all genres and I still do today. 

I started writing songs at the age of seventeen when I fell in love with my wife, Phyllis. We’ve been married now for 43+ years; she inspires me in some way ever day. 

“My hands no longer take command of strings I love to play, still melodies I’ve made can take me back to yesterday”

In 2020, I blew the dust off my acoustic and started to play again only to find that too much rust had formed over 40 years. So I turned my passion to writing and now I enjoy hiring musicians and vocalists from all around the world to help bring my music alive. 

Thanks for your interest. I hope my songs touch you in a special way; that’s the measure of success I apply to my music. 

Paul
