Biography

George Petrou was born in Athens in 1989. He studied piano at the Conservatoire and then at the Royal Academy of Music in London. He made his professional debut as a soloist in a duo with his compatriot Christos Papageorgiou. It was in this configuration that, in 1995, they won the Redding-Piette Competition. George Petrou has since moved on to conducting, creating his own Armonia Antenea ensemble with which he conducts a series of Baroque operas. A specialist in Georg Friedrich Handel, Petrou's repertoire includes Giulio Cesare, Tamerlano, Arianna in Creta, Allesandro and Arminio , alongside recitals by Max Emanuel Cencic, such as Rokoko: Hasse Opera Arias (2014). In 2015, he conducted the collection by supergroup The 5 Countertenors.
