Gaitanos Petros

Petros Gaitanos was born in Drama, Greece. After many years of musical studies he was awarded his diploma in Byzantine and European Music from The Hellenic Conservatory in Athens, having as a teacher Mr. Manolis Chatzimarkos. He has been an artistic director of the Karipeion Melathron Institute.
It is worth mentioning that an important axis of his interpretative evolution is his successful - as it has been proved - creative occupation with Byzantine music. He is one of the few Greek singers who transfer the memories of tradition to the newer generations.
