Christodoulos Halaris

Greek composer and scholar Christodoulos Halaris is a leading expert on the study and reconstruction of ancient Greek and Byzantine music. Taking his cues from religious iconography and traditional popular Greek music, Halaris began reconstructing fragmentary (and sometimes nonexistent) old Greek music documents. He has published more than 50 compact discs of this music, and helped create the Museum of Thessalonica, devoted to Greek music.
