Dimos Vryzas is a violinist, improviser, songwriter and composer from Thessaloniki, Greece. 

Since some years his focus in music has moved on Free Improvisation. He studied Improvisation with Fred Frith and Alfred Zimmerlin.

Violin is the main source of his sound. Often enough he uses his voice or other instruments to make music.
Creating various soundscapes, working with noises, composing music for Film and Theater are also at the core of his work.
As an improviser he performs in solo as well as in various formations.
He has collaborated with many composers, visual artists, directors and dancers in various interdisciplinary projects all over Europe.
