Who is
Louis Romanos?
As a composer, Louis writes for live bands, dance, TV, video

Permagrin licensed Classical to the documentary movie, Plane Spotting. Louis’

the Confederacy of Dances performance in New Orleans at the
Contemporary Arts Center, Take Me
There, the University of Monroe guitar ensemble, and a piece for Mirari
Brass Quintet. Louis wrote Light Waves for visual artist
and Chicago producer, Nancy Bechtol, and together they have a work on Culture T.V. Louis also
composed about a dozen pieces for C-E-N-T-E-R, a collaborative project between
visual artists and composers, in Los Angeles, California.
Additionally, his composition, Tyco

Recent credits include a dystopian futuristic score for the
