Songs & Stories
One musician. Many worlds.
Armed with a guitar, a lute, a voice, and occasionally a looper, I bring together original compositions, Mediterranean melodies, folk traditions, acoustic rock, and the stories behind the music.
Drawing from my albums Ansichten eines Troubadours and TRAVELER, as well as my Greek heritage and musical travels, every performance becomes a personal journey through different cultures, sounds, and experiences.
An intimate, versatile concert format for listening rooms, cultural venues, and special events.
Hellenic Music — Elena & Jannis
The timeless soul of Greek song.
Two voices, piano, and guitar come together in an intimate celebration of Greek musical heritage, from Éntechno and Laïkó to the great songs that have accompanied generations.
A concert program for cultural associations, festivals, and audiences who appreciate the beauty and emotional depth of Greek music.
Fantasy Concerts & Musical Readings
Where music, literature, and imagination meet.
As the creator of the fantasy universe Elasphera and the album Ansichten eines Troubadours, I bring my stories to life through acoustic music, literary readings, and selected performances with live illustration.
From troubadour concerts to musical fantasy readings accompanied by live painting, these programs are particularly suited to fantasy conventions, medieval festivals, book fairs, and cultural events.
Past Performances
Over the years, I’ve performed across a wide range of musical settings — from my own concerts and artistic projects to collaborations as a professional guitarist.
These experiences have taken me through different genres, ensembles, venues, and audiences, shaping the versatility that defines my work today.
