Apostolos Paraskevas:
"Harmonies on all Continents: An Introduction to 'Theodore Antoniou, the Musicmaker'"
“Theodore Antoniou: The Music Maker” is the title of an upcoming book publication on the life and work of Theodore Antoniou by Dr. Apostolos Paraskevas. The author says about the book:
"This book will be a comprehensive resource on Antoniou's teachings, biography, and interviews, offering insights into his creative process and the philosophical and artistic influences that shape his compositions. I have been interviewing Theodore and documenting his beliefs for several years with the ultimate goal of releasing a film documentary soon after the book's publication. This project is a labor of love for me and the dozens of colleagues who contributed to the material. My hope is that the publication and the film will be a valuable resource for music educators, students, and admirers of Antoniou's work.”
