History

[edit]

Early years and education

[edit]

Elli was classically trained since the young age. Rather than staying in this safe zone, however, her love for all music expanded her repertoire to include many different genres, languages, and cultures.

[edit]

Elli’s previous albums, SONNET, and A GARDEN OF HER OWN, includes songs in five different languages and genres ranging from traditional, to acoustic and ambient pop. Elli is expanding her boundaries and her new journey has led her to the United States to reach an international audience.

Musical style

[edit]

Elli strongly believes in the positive energy and power of music for the well-being of the soul.  She wants her listeners to feel comfort and sympathy. She believes that just as we feed our bodies with good food, we must also feed our souls with good music being a key ingredient. However, this does not mean that music needs to evoke happy feelings all the time. Love is beautiful precisely because it is so multifaceted and because it evokes so many different emotions. Sometimes it is happiness and celebration; sometimes it is agony and pain. Elli wants to commune and empathize with broader audiences with her songs to bring joy and healing to the soul. In Elli's word, "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything."
