from Oannes *

Μια σειρά όχι τόσο διάσημων, αλλά με μουσικό ενδιαφέρον εκτελέσεων του τραγουδιού των Rodgers & Hart, από σημαντικές φυσιογνωμίες της jazz. Για τη γιορτή – φιλί ζωής στους ανθοπώλες. Φωτό : Lee Wiley

* 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!
