Sokratis Votskos – sax & piano

Sokratis Votskos is a jazz saxophonist, clarinetist, composer, educator, and bandleader from Greece who is deeply invested in unearthing the folk sounds and heritage music of Greece and Eastern Europe and weaving them into modern jazz composition and improvisation though the use of melodies, polyrhythms, and his reedy, timeless tone. A highly regarded sideman and ensemble player, he has worked extensively with other European jazz musicians on radio, in cinema, and on television. In addition to his standard soprano and baritone saxophones, Votskos also plays bass, clarinets, duduk, bagpipe (gaita), and piano. Sokratis Votskos is a Jazzman Records artist.
