A Greek composer. His works are predominantly political, often drawing themes from Greece. He is well-known for his music for Costa Gavras's films. Although he was familiar with Byzantine and Cretan music from an early age, he never received formal musical education. He was arrested for his involvement in revolutionary movements in Greece, but was released in just under five years due to rising international public opinion.
