ELEANNA PITSIKAKI | Griechenland/Frankfurt

In the organizer's words:

As a versatile artist, Pitsikaki moves confidently between the concert stage, research and teaching. Her work is characterized by a deep interest in cultural dialogue and artistic transformation. Her projects create lively sound spaces in which different musical systems - such as makam, jazz harmony and free improvisation - meet on an equal footing.

As an ensemble leader and artistic director - including of the OMOPO Orchestra - she initiates innovative formats between concert, mediation and research. She has also played a key role in transcultural projects such as the Bridges Chamber Orchestra.
With her debut album AROMA, she made a strong artistic statement that attracted international attention and received several awards, including the Global Music Awards, nominations for the German Record Critics' Top 3 in Europe Music Network and Top 10 in Balkan Chats.

She studied Global Music with a major in Qanun at the Popakademie Mannheim and Jazz Improvisation at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln and is currently continuing her artistic-scientific research as part of a doctorate. At the same time, she works as a lecturer at renowned institutions, including the Hochschule für Musik Mainz, the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Köln and various international educational and research projects in the field of intercultural music education.
