Βρωμάει Βρετανίλα ή εμένα μου φαίνεται;
Δε θα το έθετα έτσι ακριβώς αλλά σίγουρα υπάρχει μια κλίση (και εύλογα) προς τους βρετανούς καλλιτέχνες κ τους βρετανούς συνθέτες. Αλλά από την άλλη βλέπεις να βραβεύουν και πολύ σημαντικές μορφές όπως τον Coutaz. Anyway, τα βραβεία κ οι υποψηφιότητες πάντα μου κινούσαν το ενδιαφέρον.
Καλά, ξέρουμε από τώρα ποιος θα πάρει το βραβείο για καλύτερο άλμπουμ: η Bartoli με τους καστράτους.
Bartoli, the obsessed. LOL.
She is the victim of her mom's ambitions.
Obsessed not only with her voice , but money above all.
I really cannot figure out how this came to be a Bartoli-oriented post. However I'm pretty sure that if Bartoli is the winner of the 2010 Gramophone, Echo Klassik, Grammy, whateva for Best Record, she will be totally worth it (once again).
Madama Butter-fly flew away from Mr Alagna and is trying to be happy in the high mountains of Vlad Tepes, the Dracula of the Karpathians.
Jonas beware of her bites!
