kattouantonia Antonia Kattou Glasgow Antonia Kattou (b.1999 in Nicosia, Cyprus) is a composer based in Glasgow, whose music is heavily influenced by the eastern Mediterranean sounds of Rebetika, traditional Cypriot music and Hellenic folk dance rhythms. Kattou is merging the aforementioned influences with the use of electronics and other western classical techniques and thus she is giving space to a contemporary context to appear in her works. Kattou’s capacity for original thinking and handling of abstract concepts is extremely strong. She is listed as one of the Young Generation Composers of CoMA 2020 Festival of New Music, where she was commissioned her interactive composition ‘Music for Newspapers’, which will be published by CoMa. Kattou's passion for composition and ethnomusicology led her to Royal Holloway, University of London where she graduated with a Bachelor of Music (Hons)and studied composition with Nina Whiteman. She is currently studying for an MMus in Composition with David Fennessy at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland supported by an RCS Trust Scholarship. view more at: https://www.kattouantonia.com/biography
