Christos Asonitis, a Munich based drummer and composer, unveils with fresh energy and innovation his second album “Ionian Waves”.

Seamlessly blending folk and ancient Greek musical elements with a modern jazz aesthetic, he invites us to an enchanting sonic voyage. Embarking on this musical journey, listeners will be immersed in rich harmonies, elaborate rhythms, and impressive melodies. Each composition tells a story, from the energy of the Ionian waves and the magic of the number 9 to the tragedy of Zalongo and the love story of Orpheus and Eurydice, reconstructed through a modern jazz prism. Christos Asonitis creates a harmonious fusion, a musing experience that resonates with balance of familiarity and novelty.
