Vangelis and the Journey to Ithaka
Too much attention on popularity
My main issue with this documentary is its complete focus on only the most commerically successful aspect of is has never been a commerical artist,never a top forty kinda of has largely been
avant garde,His most definitive album "heaven and hell" is bearly mentioned in this,5 albums with jon anderson only mentioned in passingVoices not mentioned at bio picts of musical artist focus so much on their success,the best sellers and they always miss the artistry what people really like about themThere is a lot of mystery involving his early solo work and its never explored the scenes of his solo playing is very good you can make a documentary and look past fame and success and see the artist, the musician ,the person it would be so much a good documentary passes, money passes the music,the man remainso the point is missed here

Can there emerging many season mornings when, with what pleas • ‘Ithaka’ with Sir Sean ConneryMy thanks to George Giaglisis for sending me this lovely recital of the poem Ithaka. I thought it was well worth sharing with you. Ithaca was written by Constantine P. Cavafis, an ethnic Greek poet who was born in Alexandria (although his father acquired British nationality and the family lived in Liverpool for a while). During his life he wrote hundreds of poems but refused to formally publish his work. He preferred to share them through local newspapers and magazines, or even print them out himself and give then away to anyone interested. His most important poetry was officially published after his death, when his work was internationally recognised. This poem, written in , was inspired by the return journey of Odysseus to his home island, as depicted in the Odyssey. To Homer, and Greeks in general, it was not the actual island, but the idea of Ithaka that was important. The poem&#;s theme is enjoyment of the journey of life, and the increasing maturity of the soul as that journey continues, are what is important, not the destination. I&#;d certainly agree with that, as would most sailors, I think. |
