Close your eyes.

Let the sounds wash over you.

Listen to your memories.

Listen to your emotions.

Syndesis is a deeply personal album that explores the nexus between music, place and memory. Retracing steps I took in my ancestral homeland of Greece twenty years after my first visit, I collected sounds from my recent return.

These sounds represent moments in time. They connect the past with the present and tether memories to place.

These sounds were captured from the top of the Acropolis to the gate at Mycenae, from water lapping against the Bourtzi Fortress to church bells ringing at St Georges church in Nafplio. Taking these sounds as inspiration, I have woven them into compositions that reflect my emotional response to the memories I hear within them.
