He served as Principal Bass in the Hong Kong Philharmonic and has worked with Charles Aznavour, Buddy Rich, Aerosmith, Jewel, Run-DMC, Deana Carter and The Celtic Tenors.

Avgerinos' work uses a combination of acoustic and electronic instruments. Avgerinos plays bass violin, cello, guitars, keyboards and sings. Avgerinos often uses romantic and impressionistic techniques as he composes and arranges his New Age productions. Often employing wordless choirs, he sometimes uses lyrics, as in his album of sacred chant Phos Hilaron, and his album GNOSIS, which utilizes Greek Orthodox chanting.

Avgerinos's collaboration with Peter Kater on his 2003 Red Moon album would earn a nomination for a Grammy Award. He has since won four Grammy Awards from six nominations, 2025 Last Sundays in Plains: A Centennial Celebration Best Audio Book, Narration, and Storytelling Recording |Best Audio Book, Narration, and Storytelling
