Thróisma is a vocal ensemble created by three Greek musicians

Yvonne Melissa, Vanessa Kourtesi, and Pinelopi Tseliou.

Thróisma is inspired by the Greek word “Θρόισμα” which means: ‘The sound
of the rustling leaves”. The trio writes original music inspired by the
sounds of the nature and explores the rich textures of Greek polyphonic
music, Rebetiko and more contemporary sounds, making the project a
culture blend.

The arrangements of the songs (rhythm and harmony) are adapted and
performed with voices and occasionally the trio is also using
instruments such as violin, guitar, percussion and loop station.

Each of Throisma’s performance is a unique improvised experience.
We encourage the audience to be part of the experience, making the show
feel like a shared, intense journey.

Thróisma isn’t just a project; it’s an exploration of what’s possible
when you strip music down to its most essential form — the human voice.

Thróisma was formed in January 2025 and it has already performed in :
Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Utrecht and Groningen.

Thróisma also organizes workshops eligible to all levels as a more
interactive way to connect with the audience.
