About George Kokkinaris

I play double bass, compose and improvise in order to get to know people and cultures of societies. Through my collaborations with composers, improvising with musicians, collaborating with visual artists, poets, dancers, I create performances of musical and sound representations in order to contribute to the approach of unknown or hidden roles to the human perception functions of music. My music is inspired by traditions and cultures, which hundreds of years ago to the present day perceive music as an integration of human activity and expression.

My performances is based on the physicalization and humanization of music through voice and movement, while combining them with new technologies. I apply new techniques to the double bass while believing in the holistic nature of music performances with speech, dance and image. I interpret and study the classical orchestral repertoire as well as works by 20th-21st century composers from different cultures and backgrounds. I travel for concerts and collaborations abroad and also organize seminars on improvisation, Creative Music. I am part of the editorial team of the magazine “NewMusic.gr”in order to create community and develop the music scene in Greece.
