Hello, I’m George Gialetzis, a Thessaloniki-born composer, music producer and sound designer. I picked up the guitar at age three, studied classical-acoustic and electric guitar at Bolero Conservatory in Kalamaria, and continued harmony and theory at Kalamaria Municipal Conservatory while performing with the Thessaloniki Municipality Philharmonic. I’ve built a career around composing, teaching, and performing live across Greece, always exploring new sounds and styles. On the production side I studied music technology in AKMI, earned a degree from the University of Wales in music technology and film music, and have worked with major labels like MINOS EMI/Universal. I own VERSE Music Studio in Thessaloniki, produce music for games with Gorilla Entertainment, compose for theatre and film, and tour as a singer-guitarist. I’m passionate about charity projects and sharing music with communities nationwide.
