A compilation of two solo cello works, showcasing my collaboration with the unstoppable cellist Loukia Loulaki over a period of 2 years:

The first piece 'The black art of obscurantism' (inspired by a quote by the german philosopher Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche) was commissioned by the London Sinfonietta and was premiered by Olly Coates at Southbank Centre, London in 2013. Loukia took it for a spin a few years later, and you can now ...marvel at the results (video production by Damian Posse Photography).

One piece was never enough (you know... like Pringles and Oreos). So, the second piece of this album 'Nothing is left to tell...' (based on Samuel Beckett's playlet Ohio Impromptu), was commissioned and premiered by Loukia in Vienna and London (Borough New Music: Series 12, St George the Martyr).

The first piece was also got selected by the Los Angeles based Chamber Orchestra Kaleidoscope, as one of the finalist compositions of their renowned 2021 call for scores!

Salto Mortale is a short fiction film (2010) by director/screenwriter Christos Massalas, certain scenes of which are taking place in a night club.

Synopsis of the film:
Incapable of grasping the possibility of change in her middle-class environment, R, seeks for a new context (and new attire) in which her distorted femininity can find shape and possibility.

Your musical journey through the '2020 Dreams' EP (released in late October 2020) begins with 'Water: Our meeting'. Initiated with field recordings of the sea waves next to Dorset's mesmerising cliffs,  this electronic music track was created (in a ...solo -a la lockdown- mode) for an independent theatre project by Vertebra Theatre in spring/summer 2020 and first performed at Reykjavik Fringe Festival. Contrary to previous works, you won't find any purely acoustic content; no singing, no breathing, no text; no violin. This wasn't unintentional... this period has left its traces somewhere inside me.

Fire: Raging

This album comes from my collaboration with French/Armenian choreographer Aline Derderian, titled 'L'antigonie' (2015): a piece of contemporary dance and music, based on the myth of Antigone (Cocteau's version), exploring the alternating physical & psychological states of the characters, as well as the embodiment of frustration and tragedy.

The project has been very kindly supported by the Arts Council England, UAL Univerity of the Arts London and ACOSS International Artist Residency Program. The selection of recordings presented in this album were made during the live performances of the dance project at TripSpace, East London (May'15).

Aline (with whom I also previously worked for Défigure sur la plage inerte) is an amazing choreographer, co-founder and director of the contemporary dance company Consensus. With L'antigonie, she aims to pay tribute to the victims of the Armenian genocide of 1915 in her own personal way.
