Music of the world
Was at a Finnish embassy reception this evening, in view of their EU presidency, and they had four singers performing beautifully melodious songs. Finnish is one of the most pleasant languages to listen to - I guess euphonic is the right adjective - that I come into contact with. Can't understand a word, of course, but I love hearing it.
And earlier in the day, a combination of a Moldova meeting and daegaer reminded me of this. Vrei să pleci dar nu mă, nu mă iei, Nu mă, nu mă iei, nu mă, nu mă, nu mă iei! Chipul tău şi dragostea din tei, Mi-amintesc de ochii tăi iei!
And finally, ianmcdonald points us to this wonderful resource of Persian music.
