Ακούμε το εισαγωγικό Kyrie από την Λειτουργία της Αγίας Καικιλίας, ένα από τα σημαντικότερα έργα του [κατά βάσιν οπερατικού] Γάλλου συνθέτη Σαρλ Γκουνό [1818-1893]. Για τρεις σολίστες : σοπράνο, τενόρος, μπάσος, μικτή χορωδία, ορχήστρα και όργανο.
H Choeur René Duclos και η Orchestre De La Société Des Concerts Du Conservatoire Paris συμπράττουν υπό τον Jean-Claude Hartemann.

We hear the introductory part Kyrie from the St. Cecilia Mass, one of the most important works written by the [basically operatic] French composer Charles Gounod [1818-1893]. For three soloists : soprano, tenor, bass, mixed choir, orchestra and organ.
Choeur René Duclos, and Orchestre De La Société Des Concerts Du Conservatoire Paris are conducted by Jean-Claude Hartemann.

Enjoy!


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!
