Vassilis Tsabropoulos is a Greek pianist, conductor, and composer.

His initial training was in classical music.[1] A reviewer of his album Melos commented that "Tsabropoulos' compositions have a static beauty and drama [... that draw] their inspiration from Greek folk music and Byzantine hymns".[1] JazzTimes magazine called the album The Triangle a combination of jazz, tango, and classical music.[2]
