vangelis

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.
