REVIEW

Silence. The natural habitat of poetry, where it is revealed to us.

Inbetween these silences, the senses, the inner indefinite sounds, the reflections, emerged over time the partnership between music and poetry of this CD, from an inner need that impressed itself each time at the moment of materialization. The instrumentation, the right moment and a secret voice limked these pieces together in a united work.

“Nothing is important, nothing is unimportant.
The world is a game of shadows, yet the images of things in our soul have a deep, bizarre reality”

Sofia Kamayianni
