Nikos Alexopoulos

Hello friends,

I am Nikos and i have been playing the Guitar since quite young. I love music and i use my free time practising, writing and making videos regarding music.

In this Channel, i will be uploading:

-Transcriptions i write for different music pieces i love (either classical music, soundtracks or other compositions)
-Personal Compositions (either songs or instrumental compositions) / sorry about that - i have to pretend there is some creative aspect in my life even if it is just make belief for my own comfort
-Songs i love

(for some reason, not all my videos appear under the Channel's Home tab, but you can find them all under the Videos tab)

(Aν ενδιαφέρεστε για μαθήματα κλασσικής κιθάρας στην Αττική, παρακαλώ στείλτε μου μύνημα στο [email protected] - ευχαριστώ)

Thank you for taking any time to watch my videos
