New Book! Co-authored by Michalis Andronikou and Katrina Estok.
“The result is a collection of twenty piano dances from around the world that I composed, accompanied by composition and improvisation suggestions, as well as pedagogical guidance designed to support university students—or anyone interested in learning the basics of piano, composition, and improvisation—while “traveling” through the diverse cultures that inspired these pieces.”
