Cyprus University of Technology unveils digital archive of composer Stelios Pissis

On Wednesday, June 10, 2026, the Cyprus University of Technology (CUT) presented the digitized archive of the late Cypriot composer Stelios Pissis (1976-2024). The project was carried out by the CUT Library's Digitization and Archive Management Office in collaboration with the Stelios Pissis Music Foundation. The archive includes scores, musical manuscripts, song lyrics, photographs, recordings, concert videos, interviews, and press clippings. This material is now preserved and available online to researchers, musicians, students, and the general public. The presentation event featured remarks from CUT Rector Panagiotis Zafiris and Library Director Marios Zervas, alongside a technical presentation by librarian Grigoria Evripidou. The initiative aims to safeguard and provide open access to the cultural heritage left by the composer. Note: Source texts differ on the year of the composer's death, with one text citing 2024 and another implicitly setting the context for 2026.
