Expanded Piano Art and Technology | Stavros Gasparatos | TEDxPatras

What happens when the piano becomes more than an instrument? Composer, Sound Artist & Curator Stavros Gasparatos took the TEDxPatras stage to share Expanded Piano II—a hybrid performance where acoustic piano, sensors, and live electronics blend into a new form of musical storytelling. Rooted in improvisation, uncertainty, and real-time interaction, the piece pushes the boundaries of art and technology. Stavros Gasparatos is a composer, sound artist, and curator whose work spans contemporary music, mixed media projects, and sound applications in the performing arts. He composes music for theatre, cinema, and dance, and since 2022, he has served as a consultant for contemporary music and mixed media projects at the Athens and Epidaurus Festival and is the founder of Subset Festival. He has composed music for over 200 productions, working with renowned Greek and international artists and institutions, including the National Theatre, Onassis Cultural Centre, Athens Festival, National Opera, BAM—New York, Dallas Opera, Documenta14 – Kassel, The Watermill Center – NY and the Pulitzer Arts Foundation—St. Louis. From 2017 to 2020 he directed the Transmedia Lab of the Greek National Opera; from 2019 to 2022 he was a member of the Board of Directors of the Athens Festival. His works include Expanded Piano I & II, music for the unveiling of the new Acropolis illumination (2020), music for the opening of the New Acropolis Museum (2009), and Rules of the Game (2016), in collaboration with Jonah Bokaer and Dallas Opera. He has presented musical works and performances in major venues and festivals in Europe, America, and Asia, and his original music has received awards from the Greek Film Academy (2013), the Drama Festival (2017), and the Greek Theatre and Music Critics Association (2009).
