from Oannes *

Κλείνουμε αυτό το μήνα “όπως αρμόζει”, με ένα τελευταίο έργο του Frédéric Chopin. Πρελούδιο Op. 28 Νο. 4, σε τρεις βερσιόν : την original ερμηνεύει ο Rudolf Buchbinder. Στη συνέχεια (02:11) ένα τραγούδι του A.C. Jobim με την αρμονία δανεισμένη από αυτό : ‘How Insensitive’, από την επίσης γεννημένη αυτό το μήνα, Astrud Gilberto. Και τέλος (05:59) η φαντασμαγορική, ελεύθερη απόδοσή του από τον Chick Corea.

We close this month “appropriately”, with a final work by Frédéric Chopin. Prelude Op. 28 No. 4, in three versions: the original one is performed by Rudolf Buchbinder. Then (02:11) a song by A.C. Jobim with harmony borrowed from it : ‘How Insensitive’, sung by Astrud Gilberto, also born this month. And finally (05:59) Chick Corea’s phantasmagoric free rendition.
