Greek composer-pianist Panayiotis Demopoulos is a man who plays many parts: an established composer and pianist in the contemporary classical genre, with highly-praised recordings, he is also, alongside his 'day job' as a high-level local government officer, an accomplished composer and performer of modern jazz. The suite "Nina's Clock" employs solo piano with some 'preparation' and is part improvised on a structured skeleton, and follows the story of one night after recording sessions, a variety of moods and styles. The suite has eleven movements and is not set out on anything like the normal twelve "O'clocks" but is a reflection of moods, external stimuli and events as felt by the composer. Demopoulos has recorded classical and contemporary music for both the M�tier and Diversions labels and is busy preparing two more classical albums.
