Depictions of the human figure - (7000 - 4000 BCE)


Igor Stravinsky - The Rite of Spring (according to Angelin Preljojac)

 

Κωνσταντίνος Π. Καβάφης - Κατά τες συνταγές αρχαίων Ελληνοσύρων μάγων

«Ποιό απόσταγμα να βρίσκεται από βότανα
γητεύματος», είπ' ένας αισθητής,
«ποιό απόσταγμα κατά τες συνταγές
αρχαίων Ελληνοσύρων μάγων καμωμένο
που για μια μέρα (αν περισσότερο
δεν φθάν' η δύναμίς του), ή και για λίγην ώρα
τα είκοσι τρία μου χρόνια να με φέρει
ξανά· τον φίλον μου στα είκοσι δυο του χρόνια
να με φέρει ξανά -- την εμορφιά του, την αγάπη του.

»Ποιό απόσταγμα να βρίσκεται κατά τες συνταγές
αρχαίων Ελληνοσύρων μάγων καμωμένο
που, σύμφωνα με την αναδρομήν,
και την μικρή μας κάμαρη να επαναφέρει.»
 
Constantine P. Cavafy - According To The Formulas Of Ancient Grecosyrian Magi 
"What distillate can be discovered from herbs
of a witching brew," said an aesthete,
"what distillate prepared according
to the formulas of ancient Grecosyrian magi
which for a day (if no longer
its potency can last), or even for a short time
can bring my twenty three years to me
again; can bring my friend of twenty two
to me again -- his beauty, his love.

"What distillate prepared according
to the formulas of ancient Grecosyrian magi
which, in bringing back these things,
can also bring back our little room."

"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.
