Direct from Greece: Elsa Mouratidou to enchant Australian audiences

·

Direct from Greece, Elsa Mouratidou will be playing two intimate shows in Melbourne and Sydney this weekend.

Her musical journey began early, influenced by her involvement in the Ayia Triada Children’s Choir, before she pursued classical philology at Democritus University of Thrace. Elsa’s vocal training, which includes mentorship from Eleni Mihalopoulou and attendance at seminars with renowned artists such as Spyros Sakkas, Savina Yannatou and Michael Marmarinos, has helped shape her distinctive sound.

In addition to leading the Elsa Mouratidou Sextet and releasing the album Epsilon & Theta (Έρωτας & Θάνατος), Elsa actively participates in various musical projects. She is a member of Stringless (an a cappella group), Argatia Ensemble (specialising in Black Sea music), and Tir Fada (focused on Celtic music). Her recent contributions to projects like L’alma de Saloniko (Judeo-Spanish songs of Thessaloniki) and Plan C–Caucasus (songs from the Caucasus) further demonstrate her versatility.

Elsa’s impressive career has taken her across Greece and internationally, performing at prestigious festivals and venues in countries like Turkey, Bulgaria, Spain, France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland and Morocco. She has collaborated with a wide array of Greek artists, including Giorgos Kazantzis, Doros Demosthenous, Maria Thoidou and many more.

Beyond her performances, Elsa has worked with the National Theatre of Northern Greece as both a performer and music director. She has spent 18 years as a vocal coach, nurturing the next generation of musicians and actors at music schools and the Drama School of the National Theatre of Northern Greece.
