About

George began his career in music as a performer-composer of his own works, writing music for theatrical and dance plays in Greece and in the UK. He also worked as a soloist with the Opera of Thessaloniki.

He studied Counterpoint and Fugue in Greece, graduating with a first class degree. In 2008 he received a Masters in composition at the University of Surrey under Dr. Steve Goss. Currently he is studying towards a PhD in music semiotics under Prof. Monelle and Dr. Moran at the University of Edinburgh.

His work involves how semiotic (cultural) and musical backgrounds affect a performer's approach to printed music, with a special interest in the perception of structure and overall performance as well as structural associations between musical (notational) and linguistic script.
