Vasilis Kostas: Classical Musician in New York

About Vasilis Kostas

Vasilis Kostas is a Greek musician working at the intersection of classical technique and the traditional music of Epirus. His practice centers on bringing regional melodic and rhythmic language into contemporary performance settings, with arrangements that keep close to the source material. In New York City he appears at Roulette with a program pairing contemporary and traditional repertory, including the world premiere of *Léna* (RBA). His performances tend to favor detail and line over display.
