Filippos Raskovic is a composer and improviser from Athens, based in Vilnius. After obtaining his Diploma in piano performance at Maiandrio Conservatory in Athens, he continued his studies in composition at the Academy with Rubens Askenar and Simon Bainbridge and in CSMA, Zaragoza with José M. Sánchez-Verdú.
His work creates a sonic world which is accidental and composed, recognisable and unexpected all at the same time.
As a composer, he often creates interdisciplinary work with visual artists. In 2021 he completed the performative installation Echo Chambers in close collaboration with the sculptor D.Tampakis, which was developed during his FUGA residency in Spain.
As an improviser he self-released his first album gentle presence in 2020 and has performed at the MONOPIANO Festival at Fylkingen, Stockholm. He is also a founding member of illucid trio with Kazimieras Jušinskas and Gediminas Stepanavičius. The trio explores the boundaries among free improvisation, jazz and composition resulting in long-duration improvisations.
In 2019 he co-founded the KRAMA music festival, which aims to present a new outlook within the Greek independent music scene, bringing together free improvisation with contemporary classical and experimental electronic music.
He is also a monthly resident host at the independent web radio station, Radio Vilnius.
