Another beautiful vocalize.........This time it was added to REQUIEM FOR PAT & LADY DI.
Originally expressed with church organ & strings around 1996 this Christ Energy bearer had to wait for the arrival of one of the purest voices, Spiro's pal & friend,soprano ELENI CALENOS...
...just remember her name.... & definitely check her performance. Also ,since Eleni is also an accomplished cellist Spiro had her play 2voice celli part that rendered his synthesized strings more vivid & real. So now NEW MILLENNIUM is in good company. |
