Van Shnooken Raggen (Andrew Lynch) - Two Warehouses




John Coltrane - Stan Getz - Oscar Peterson - Paul Chambers - Jimmy Cobb "Hackensack"




Kālidāsa's Meghadūta, or "Cloud Messenger"(Sanskrit lyrical poetry / Circa 400-1100 A.D.)


(Here are the magic gardens of heaven)

...Where lovers, rich with hidden wealth untold,
Wander each day with nymphs for ever young,
  Enjoy the wonders that the gardens hold,
The Shining Gardens, where the praise is sung
Of the god of wealth by choirs with love-impassioned tongue.




Where sweet nocturnal journeys are betrayed
At sunrise by the fallen flowers from curls
  That fluttered as they stole along afraid,
By leaves, by golden lotuses, by pearls,
By broken necklaces that slipped from winsome girls...

"there are no spaces between our dreams..." -I was born in Athens, Greece and I started my musical odyssey by listening to all types of music and writing songs, from a very young age (…kind of the way most of us get hooked in music!!!) Soon I began taking lessons in classical guitar and music theory and it wasn’t too long that I realized music will be the way of life for me. My musical interests were always omnidirectional, so my studies included acoustic and electric guitar as well as classical and jazz piano. Then moved on to Theory of music, Harmony, Counterpoint, Fugue, Orchestration, Instrumentation of Concert Band and Composition. During the last few years I mess around with music technology (mixing & mastering, production, electro music), collaborating in Greece and abroad. Also I am teaching music for the past twenty years(…!!!). Through my teaching experiences, I learned that music, is much more than a profession; it is mainly a common language that satisfies the human need for communication and not only can expand the understanding of our existence but it can reach deep into our souls.
