from Oannes *

Η “ανάγνωση” της Πέμπτης Συμφωνίας από τον Carlos Kleiber είναι από εκείνες μέσα απ’ τις οποίες κάποιος επανανακαλύπτει ένα έργο. Ακόμα κι αν η ατέρμονη επανάληψή του το έχει κατατάξει στα κλισέ.
Γιατί η αναλυτική δύναμη και η αμεσότητα με την οποία διευθύνει ο CK είναι αυτή ενός ανθρώπου που έρχεται για πρώτη φορά αντιμέτωπος με το μεγαλείο της συνθεσης.

✻

Carlos Kleiber’s “reading” of the Fifth Symphony is one of those through which one rediscovers a work, even though its endless repetition has ranked it among the clichés.
For the analytical power and immediacy with which CK conducts is that of a man who comes face to face with the greatness of the composition for the first time.

* 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!
