Christos Kanettis - Violin
Violinist
Christos Kanettis was born in 1960 in Salonica, Greece. He studied at the Athens
Conservatory with Ismini Carter, the Vienna Music-University with Franz Samohyl
and at the Julliard School with Dorothy DeLay. He participated in master classes
with Josef Gingold, Sando Vegh and Ithzak Perlman. His début in 1986 at the
Carnegie Recital Hall was reviewed by the New York Times; “His
interpretation reflected variety, precision and a strong sense of purpose……the
lyrical sound came often in contrast with his powerful stage appearance”. He has
had an extensive concert career as a soloist, recitalist and chamber musician in
Europe, Canada, USA and Mexico. He is a US citizen and lives in Innsbruck,
Austria, since 1996 where he holds teaching positions at the “Mozarteum”
University in Salzburg and at the State Conservatory, Innsbruck.
