“Even in Goethe we come across heavy lines, even in him we can be confronted by...”
– Andrey Bely, The Tragedy of Art, ‘Dostoievsky and Tolstoy’. A quote featured in Andrey Tarkovsky’s diary entry, November 10, 1980. from Time Within Time: The Diaries, Andrey Tarkovsky. The passages highlighted by my father (years ago) in particular are intriguing to me.

Listen: Eleftheria & Dinkjian - Yar Ko and Bingyol... →
Back in 1994, Ara Dinkjian, Lina Nikolakopoulou and Eleftheria Arvanitaki worked together on the album Ta Kormia Kai Ta Maheria (The Bodies and the Knives) and made a few Greek covers of traditional Armenian songs. In this particular one, she’s singing Yar Ko Barak Boyin Mernem (Parapano) and Bingyol (I Ksenitia). Greek lyrics here.  Yallahhhh, two of your favorite songs, Arpi. How did you...
