Demetriou, Stephanos

Stephanos Demetriou was born and raised in Cyprus. He began playing guitar at a young age and eventually met Costas Apokides, who introduced him to the world of classical guitar. His musical journey led him to Bulgaria, where he studied under the mentorship of Professor Rossen Balkanski at the National Academy of Music in Sofia. After earning his master’s degree, he became actively involved in teaching, arranging, and composing. A few months after graduating, he relocated to Pleven, where he has lived in recent years, teaching at the National School of Arts "Panayot Pipkov" and at Chitalishte Lik.

Stephanos has performed with a variety of musical ensembles, ranging from classical to electronic music scenes. He has received awards for his compositions and performances, and his students have likewise been recognised for their achievements. Currently, he is returning to his homeland, seeking to further define his musical path as both an artist and educator.
