Composer falls off home scaffold to his death
RIPThe eminent Greek composer Notis Mavroudis died yesterday after falling from a scaffold while conducting repairs to the outside of his house.
Notis was 77.
A professor at the National Conservatory of Athens, he was an important link in the great chain of Greek art song, performing in many countries.
Born in 1945 in jail, where his mother was a political prisoner, Notis spent some years in Italian and Spanish exile and was much in demand as a virtuoso guitarist. After Theodorakis and Hadjidakis, he revered the Beatles.
