Nileas Kamarados was born in Bosporus in 1847. He died in Istanbul in 1922. His Father, Antonis, and his grandfather, Constantinos, escaped the massacre of Chios and set up a trading empire in Russia. They later returned to Asia Minor. He was an influential cantor in byzantine music and invented his own notational system based on the Byzantine and Armenian systems his tutors taught him.
