About Chrispa"Chrispa" is the professional name for Chrisanthi Pagona Pitiropoulou (Χρυσάνθη Παγώνα Πητιροπούλου). Sometimes her name is spelled in English as Hrispa or Hrisanthi. Chrispa was born in Athens in 1982. As a child, her passion drew her to ballet, which she studied for 13 years. When she saw that a career in ballet was probably not going to be an option for her, she shifted her focus to playing piano and guitar. Her singing career began at age 18, when she came to the attention of Sofia Vossou. Vossou used her connections to help Chrispa sign a contract with Alpha Records. Chrispa went on to sing in concerts with many prominent Greek musicians of the time. Chrispa released her debut album in 2003. Several more albums followed, including collaboration projects with other popular artists. |
