My Jazz Story

Jazz is not information. It's a way of thinking. I've been teaching jazz piano for 30 years, working with Greek-speaking students worldwide through JazzTeaching.gr. My approach is rooted in the Barry Harris Method — functional harmony, voicings, and improvisation as a language, not a formula. Studied at Berklee College of Music and Kunstuniversität Graz.
