@asderso i think he mixed the ALBUM with the SOUNDTRACK. This exellent piece you hear is from the ALBUM, which is the Masterpiece. The SOUNDTRACK is different
@asderso This is not a piece from the soundtrack to Iannis Smaragdis' movie, but the first movement from the El Greco album composed some years earlier. He did so to raise money for a work by Domenikos Theotoukopoulos to be bought and returned to Greece.
i've heard "chariots of fire", "conquest of paradise", some "jon & vangelis"-stuff, a compilation, "china", i bought "spiral", "heaven and hell", "l'apocalypse des animaux" - but "el Greco" is the damn best thing i heard from mister papathanassiou so far. i love this man.
the music of Vangelis is the only music I know of that can make you go places your soul can only get to! in that there is so much emotion, power and feeling in his music.
on 7:17 the masterpiece and best part beginns! i like the most tracks of vangelis. his musical ideas are one of the best what we have in a time with electronic music. i know, not all people like this kind of music, but i am absolutely sure: he is complete underestimated.
A haunting work of the great Vangelis, my most beloved composer of our time. This piece brings me to another age, another dimension of dreams, mystical adventure, where everything felt supernatural, before the scientific epoch.
If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times: Vangelis is the most gifted, prolific, and highly underrated recording artist of our time! And, according to Vangelis, most of his work has NOT been released! Unbelievable...and consistently haunting, his music is the soundtrack to our lives.
Excuse me - are joking or what? So Vangelis have been composing "New Age" for all those years? And maybe Tangerine Dream too? And Pink Floyd of course - it's all New Age!
I will make the correction. I dont know if you are christian or not since the new age cult does offend christianity, but many of Vangelis's work has been labelled "new age" for some reason.
Now, after carefully listening to it most of it is classical/ectronic
New age electronica is something that deals with working on Western classical notes in a synthesizers, New age electronica stressses on Harmony like Western classical more than pallavi and charanams similar to Indian music you see in Pink Floyd psychedelic rock...
Vangelis is the complete composer, in Alexander he composed few tracks in the symphony which from any musican's opinion could've been done in the studio. Only Vanelis himself can understand perfection creator of virtual genre
@mathu21 (Pink Floyd-psychedelic rock). T.Dream, Jarre, Vangelis, Schulze, -"classic electronic new-age" (not "electronic music"- this can be also jazz, synth-pop, disco). New-age- not as religious movement !!
@mathu21 Neither Vangelis nor Tangerine Dream were ever new age (and certainly not pink floyd)...i think the only reasonably well known electronic musician (that I know of) that you can call new age is Kitaro...
May be I will sound quite crazy, but the music of this composer gives me the same sensations that people like H.P. Lovecraft or J.R.R. Tolkien had created in their public; an atmospheric deepness that could only be explain by persons with the gift of high developed imagination...of an retrospective memories in the deep regions of the human mind.
the reason that this video doesn't have comments:to complex and advanced for ppl's brains.keep listening britney spears and justin timberlake... good song,are you sure that it was made on this planet?
What a masterpiece this really is !
