from Oannes *

Ο κορυφαίος του γαλλικού μπαρόκ για τον 17ο αιώνα Marc-Antoine Charpentier (1643-1704) υπήρξε δημιουργός μεγάλου αριθμού έργων σε κάθε φόρμα, διακρίθηκε όμως ιδιαίτερα για την εκκλησιαστική του μουσική. Ακούμε δυο αποσπάσματα από τη Λιτανεία Για Την Παρθένο.

✻

Marc-Antoine Charpentier (1643-1704), the leading French baroque composer of the 17th century, composed numerous works in all genres, but he was particularly distinguished for his sacred music. We hear two excerpts from his Litany For The Virgin.

* 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!
