George Petrou (Γιώργος Πέτρου) is a Greek conductor of classical music, and in particular the operas of Handel. His recording of Alessandro with his own Armonia Atenea ensemble was awarded a prize at the International Opera Awards. Born in Athens, Petrou studied piano at the Conservatory of Athens, then at the Royal Academy in London, with the support of the Onassis Foundation. As a pianist he performed in a duo with the pianist Christos Papageorgiu, winning the Redding-Piette competition in 1995.〔Revue musicale de Suisse romande 1998- Page 114 "... E.
