Sylvester was born in Athens, Greece on January 30th,
1979. Sylvester developed a passion for music at the
young age of six or seven. He studied the piano in a
neighborhood faculty, but not happy with his teachers,
he withdrew from his piano studies and began
studying the synthesizer. At the age of 13 he formally
became a student at the well known Philippos Nakas
faculty in Greece.
At the age of 18, still not content and not wanting to
enter the molds of classical composers, he once again
stopped his formal musical studies and went his own
way.
He searches deep into his emotions and his internal
world to bring you his music.
"Once listened to never forgotten"
Sylvester is in the process of making his first CD and
will be available soon!Band/artist history
Sylvester exists since Tasos Kalaitzakis was given birth. Since January 13th 1979.Have you performed in front of an audience?No, i don't play live..... I've performed live but not many times. I remember once i was playing one of my songs in a concert that Yamaha did to Greece to promote some of their instruments. A lady came and sit next to me and she told me : "i should hire you to play for me... the way you play the piano..... if Yanni was here he'd be jelous of how passionate is your playing". This was a special moment for me and i was only 13.
Your musical influences
My music sounds like Yanni. Many people tells me that. I'm trying to develope my own style but it's still hidden inside me somewhere... i don't know where yet. I also like Howard Shore, Alan Silvestri, James Newton Howard, Michael Nyman, James Horner and John Williams. SOmeone may may hear some of their "elements" in my music, depending on what they hear from me. For example, my song I Love You, sounds more like Yanni. But my song To The Falling Man sounds like all the others i've mentioned. So, you may "hear" many of them in my music and some of Sylvester's style. That's my key to succesed songs. I use my imagination to "see" what the listener would like to listen when i compose. Many times i put my self to the listener's sit and i try to see things from his point of view. That's why many people says that my music touches the heart and the soul. Because what i write is what i like to listen to. It's what i would like to listen from someone else (for example Yanni). THis is Sylvester. Everything else you hear in my songs is just my eford to simulate other's sound (Howard Shore ect) to my music.What equipment do you use?
FLStudio, Garritan Personal Orchestra, EZDrummer, Terratec DMX6Fire 24/96, Pentium4 2.6, 1.2G RAM, Korg N364 (Keyboard), Sennheizer HD270 (Monitors.Anything else?
Soon there will be a live interview of Sylvester at Athens International Radio, with Tom Alexopoulos. I'll let you know when.Gabrielle's favs
