Δίπλα στις disco γελοιογραφίες “κλασικής” με τις οποίες έγινε διάσημη, η Vanessa Mae διατήρησε την ικανότητα να παίζει αληθινή μουσική. Ακούμε δική της, άγνωστη σχετικά διασκευή του έργου που, σύμφωνα με τον συνθέτη του, Giuseppe Tartini , του υπαγορεύτηκε σε όνειρο από τον …Διάβολο αυτοπροσώπως.
Πέρα από το βιολί της VM, είναι το εκκλησιαστικό όργανο που “γράφει” ως εύρημα.

Next to the “classical” disco caricatures that made her famous, Vanessa Mae maintained her ability to play real music. We hear it in her own, rare adaptation of the work which, according to its composer, Giuseppe Tartini, was dictated in a dream by …the Devil himself. Apart from the violin, it is the church organ that sets the mood here.

More about these reblogs

Lately I have been rebloging music videos from Oannes new blog. For my friends who didn’t know, or wonder why…. Oannes [aka Socratis Papahatzis] is my husband, partner in life and music and the one with my undying admiration. Together we have a band MK-O [the music of Marina Kanavaki & Oannes]. So, it’s my pleasure to share with you his [and mine] musical selections. Although here I reblog mainly his musical selections, he writes exceptional articles on various topics [some may need translation], so do visit his site. He has my highest recommendation!
