Greek guitar virtuoso and composer Smaro Gregoriadou attempts a redefinition of the classical guitar’s sound and technique through the Reinventing guitar project that she introduced in 2009, based on Kertsopoulos Aesthetics. Her innovative approach has generated enthusiastic response worldwide. "In her own way, Gregoriadou evokes musicians such as Horowitz, Gould, and Landowska in her willingness—her need, really—to reanimate the music, without letting innovation become an end in itself." (Ray Tuttle, Fanfare.)
She has studied with distinguished specialists of our time: pianist-conductor Hadjinikos, guitarists Kertsopoulos, Castro-Balbi, Galbraith, Aussel; composers Sioras, Antoniou, Konstandinidis. She has been awarded a posrgraduate Scholarship with C. Bonnel at the Royal College of Music. She won numerous international music awards and appeared as soloist in Europe, Russia, Canada, USA, Australia, and China, solo or with major orchestras and chamber music groups. Her compositions have been premiered and commissioned by important artistic ensembles worldwide. She is a member of the Greek ISCM. Today she devotes her time to solo guitar performance, composition and teaching – as well as conducting guitar workshops and multi-disciplinary projects titled Inclusive Interpretation and Functional Technique. Her highly acclaimed discography (DELOS, AN-ART ARTISTRY) is available worldwide. Smaro’s transcriptions for classical guitar are published by Reinventing Guitar Editions.
