Stelios Petrakis
Lyra – Lute – vocals
Music composer and musical instrument maker, Stelios Petrakis was introduced to the art of the lyre at a young age.
He has appeared in concerts and recordings with major musicians in world music (Ross Daly, Chemiranis) and traditional Cretan music (Giorgis Xylouris, Vasilis Stavrakakis).
In addition, he has worked with various international and Greek composers (Efren Lopez, Stephanie Economou, Manolo García, Christos Leontis and Stamatis Spanoudakis).
Today he is one of its main young exponents and innovators, listing nine personal records, many international distinctions. With his two current formations - the “Stelios Petrakis Quartet” and the “Lopez-Petrakis-Chemirani trio” - he travels his music all over the world, giving concerts in important halls and festivals worldwide such as Carnegie Hall in New York, Théâtre de la Ville and Philharmonie in Paris, Rainforest Festival in Malaysia, World Sacred music festival in Fes - Morocco and in Rajastan - India etc.
He maintains a manufacturing workshop in Heraklion of musical instruments making lyres, lutes and other stringed medieval and modern musical instruments.
