In 1992 Vangelis composed the music for the film "1492 - Conquest Of Paradise". Undeniable visually impressive on the big screen, but it was the music that had the biggest impact on me. I immediately scraped every little bit of pocket money together and bought the soundtrack, one of my first CDs ever. The album ran nonstop all day long for days. Later I discovered more and more of Vangelis' previous works. |
The last 30
years his music has accompanied me and probably will continue
to
do so. With his
passing this May I am grateful for all the lush musical soundscapes he
created as a source of immersion and inspiration for generations to
come. |
