from Oannes *

Ένα άλλο είδος …hi energy music. Από το μεγαλύτερο συνθέτη του 20ου αιώνα, Sergei Prokofiev και το συγκλονιστικό soundtrack που έγραψε για την ταινία του Eisenstein “Ιβάν ο Τρομερός” [1944]. Ακούμε δύο αποσπάσματα. Ο Valery Gergiev διευθύνει τη Φιλαρμονική του Ρότερνταμ και την χορωδία της Ορχήστρας του Κίροφ.

✻

Another kind of …hi energy music. From the greatest composer of the 20th century, Sergei Prokofiev and his spellbinding soundtrack for Eisenstein’s film “Ivan The Terrible” [1944].
Here’s two excerpts from it. The Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra and the Chorus of the Kirov Orchestra are conducted by Valery Gergiev.

* For my friends who didn’t know, or first timers here, 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 sometimes mine] musical selections. • Do visit his site. He has my highest recommendation!
