Hromata

Chromata were formed in 2006 by Eva and Fil Ieropoulos, who are sister and brother from the north of Greece. Eva has been composing music for children for years and Fil was always interested in micro-electronica, so the marriage of the two seemed inevitable in the form of child-like bitter-sweet electronic compositions. Their common love for Manos Hadjidakis led to the name ‘Chromata’ [colours], but the name was soon considered appropriate beyond this reference, as the music was described by many people as strongly cinematic. The band has released their first album at the beginning of 2009 on CooRecords.
Eva Ieropoulou has been composing music for children for over fifteen years. She has released two cds ‘To Prasino Mouskari-o’ and ‘Ta Pos Ke ta Yiati’. Eva teaches music to children aged 3-6 at the conservatory she opened with her husband, composer Costas Bravakis, in Veria. She also writes fairytales and plays and she has three forthcoming book releases in the next year.
