Kristapor

Kristapor is a composer and conductor from Greece .
He started studying piano since he was 5 years old . Performing compositions of other composers made him feel that things could be somehow different in music . He had to express hisself in a diferent way . That was for sure not performing . He had to compose music , to express and show his way and point of view .
Kristapor studied composition , orchestration , orchestra conducting , electronic music , music technology and film scoring techniques . He also attended plenty of composition masterclasses in Greece and in Germany , most of them about modern composition techniques .
Kristapor is working professional in music for about 20 years . He has worked on many different music styles . Writing Radio jingles , composing music for the theatre , writing songs , working as an orchestrator for various music productions , setting poems of important poets to music . His music for the monologue of the playwright Robert Schneider called Dirt , was a big success for the greek art facts . He also directed this representation . It was presented in a Bar Theatre form . The last years Kristapor is working mostly in the field of Contemporary Classical Music , using at the same time electronic devices synchronized with the performers and experiments with new methods in each new composition of his .
There is too much improvisation and seeking for new paths in music . Actually looking for new things is a condition that leads life forward . But there must always be a reason in this . A structure in the very wide meaning of this word . Unfortunately things happen too accidentally . without a reason to exist . RAISON D ETRE .
Kristapor is also the owner of Studio Gaia in Athens Greece that is used for various music productions .
In the player you can hear parts of his composition , The Failure of Genesis (a composition in four parts for piano , violin , viola , viloncello , flute , clarinet , percussion and electronic devices) and Pemptoussia for two Cellos .
Best Regards from Greece and from Kristapor .
