Demetrios Lialios

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Demetrios Lialios (1869-1940) was a Greek composer. He studied at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater München under Ludwig Thuille. He was possibly the first modern Greek composer to do chamber music. His Requiem in B minor, titled Missa pro Defunctis is perhaps the first large-scale choral work. He also did works for various languages and Greek Orthodox liturgies.[1]
