Nina's Clock on CD

Greek composer-pianist Panayiotis Demopoulos is a man who plays many parts: an established composer and pianist in the contemporary classical genre, with highly-praised recordings, he is also, alongside his 'day job' as a high-level local government officer, an accomplished composer and performer of modern jazz. The suite "Nina's Clock" employs solo piano with some 'preparation' and is part improvised on a structured skeleton, and follows the story of one night after recording sessions, a variety of moods and styles. The suite has eleven movements and is not set out on anything like the normal twelve "O'clocks" but is a reflection of moods, external stimuli and events as felt by the composer. Demopoulos has recorded classical and contemporary music for both the Métier and Diversions labels and is busy preparing two more classical albums.
