SURREY, UK – Greek-born pianist Panos Karan continues his Bach Around the World series with part six of his musical journey around the world.
Karan travels “to a mystical and far away place, a volcanic island where, hundreds of years ago, Polynesian people arrived and left behind one of the most spectacular sights: hundreds of Moai statues that represent the tribe’s ancestors. This is Easter Island.”
In the video, Karan performs Bach’s Prelude and Fugue No. 6 in D Minor and presents a brief travel guide to the exotic Easter Island, located in the Pacific Ocean.
The video is available online: https://vimeo.com/user10633114.
The videos of his previous musical journeys to Adelaide, Australia, Siberia, Quito, Luang Prabang in Laos, and Athens, Greece, the city of Karan’s childhood, are also available on Vimeo.
In the next musical journey in the series, Karan visits Rio de Janeiro.
