Aristotelis Dimitrakopoulos (b. 1998) is a composer, performer (saxophone, various types of recorders), and researcher-musicologist. Originally from Preveza, Epirus, Greece, he
developed a deep interest in composition from an early age, with a particular focus on its historical foundations.
He is a graduate (Bachelor of Music) of the Department of Music Science and Art, University of Macedonia, with specialization in "Composition". He holds a Master’s degree (Master of Arts) in the same department, specializing in “European Early music and modal musical traditions of the Mediterranean”. Additionally, he holds a Saxophone Diploma (BMus) from the Thessaloniki Contemporary Conservatory.
As a composer, performer and researcher, he explores and considers new ways of approaching, bridging and linking the early Mediterranean classical musical tradition with a broad spectrum European Early music, something that characterizes
his works and his performing nature.
Several scholars and critics have described his works as presenting a "paradox of temporality". By connecting “historical” musical textures and traditions, his compositional style and artistic-
academic work re-examine the artistic heritage of the past and integrate the “historical” into the broader spectrum of the "contemporary - avant-garde".
