Greek baritone, Dimitri Platanias first studied classical guitar and graduated in both Classical Guitar and Singing at the Kalamata Municipal Conservatory and with a degree in English Language and Literature from the Greek National University in Athens. He decided to relinquish the classical guitar for a career in singing when in 2000 he won the Alexandra Triandi Scholarship from the Friends of Music Foundation in Athens to study for two years in Cremona with Aldo Protti's widow, Masako Tanaka Protti. In 2004 he made his debut at the Greek National Opera singing the role of Alfio CAVALLERIA RUSTICANA. His debut in Italy as Gerard ANDREA CHENIER in 2007 marked the beginning of his international career.
