Dimitris Terpizis is an emerging artist who aims to emote through music and transport the listener into powerful sonic Odysseys. His musical path began early, with private lessons in drums, piano, and guitar. In 2017, he was highly active during the European Capital of Culture events, performing in Cyprus and Denmark with the Aarhus Jazz Orchestra and many renowned artists.
A graduate of the Conservatory of Maastricht with honors, Dimitris has performed with several notable projects and artists across Europe, including the Swing Design Big Band, Fringe Orchestra alongside Camille Bertault and Lander Gyselinck, Ruud Breuls, and Orchestravian.
After releasing his debut album, Amorphous Odyssey, featuring collaborations with Panagiotis Andreou and David Binney, he embarked on a European tour to perform his original music.
He recently completed his Master’s degree at the Berklee Global Jazz Institute, studying closely with world-renowned artists including Danilo Pérez, John Patitucci, Joe Lovano, and Adam Cruz, where he further shaped his artistic voice. Now based in the U.S., he continues his journey of creating evocative, boundary-pushing music and has recently released his EP 6211.
