Basil ATHANASIADIS: The Cat in Love
for female voice, violin and piano (Shie Shoji - voice, Stelios Chatziiosifidis - violin, Jasmina Samssulli - piano).
Programme Note:
A setting of a haiku by Yaha
The cat in love is pitiable, Caterwauling from the beginning (Yaha)
What is most interesting about the Japanese Haiku, is the simplicity of language. In fact at times is so simple that even a little child can easily understand. Yet they are considered as masterpieces of refined expression. Τhis aesthetic can have a great potential in contemporary music and arts.
Recorded at St John the Evangelist Church, Oxford on 17 February 2017.
