Description

Jani Christou was as much a philosopher and metaphysician as he was a composer. He studied, beside music, philosophy with Wittgenstein and Bertrand Russel, and psychology with Karl Jung. Absorbing subjects from philosophy, anthropology, psychology, theology and comparative religions, his interests find their expression in his music. His compositional techniques are at times transmuted beyond conventional music, serving his philosophical ideas rather then purely musical ones. Performed by Margarita Elia - voice and Anita Tomasevich - piano Recorded by Jim Turney Video editing by Paniko Stavrou
