from Oannes *

Aκούμε τη μεγαλειώδη εισαγωγή της όπερας “Prince Igor”, του [γιατρού, χημικού και συνθέτη] Alexander Borodin. Την Ορχήστρα του Κίροφ διευθύνει ο Valery Gergiev.

✻

We hear the magnificent Overture from “Prince Igor”, an opera written by [doctor, chemist, composer] Alexander Borodin. The Kirov Orchestra is conducted by Valery Gergiev.

As always, I’m happy to hear your thoughts, however I’d highly recommend a direct dialogue with the …’source’ [why comments are closed here], so please visit Oannes’ page where you can also listen to the music !

* 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!
