Amalia Apartments Skiathos: The singing must not be elegant, brilliant, nor even pretty. I have been told repeatedly in Portugal that nothing is so intolerably dull to a fado audience as "bel canto stuff." The voice must be a bit rough, earthy, "spoiled by too much wine," in order to move its hearers. Lisbon's most famous modern fadista, amalia apartments skiathos Rodrigues, was invited to New York in 1952 and in the nightclub La Vie en Rose took her hearers by storm.Among them are two writers from the island of Skiathos —Alexandras Papadiamantes (1851-1911) and Alexandras Moraitides (1851-1929), close friends whose lives and work were very similar. They (especially Papadiamantes) wrote with a deep understanding of human nature, with sincerity, and with religious feeling. Georgios Vizyenos is noted for the introduction of psychological themes in his prose. Demetrios Kambouroglou (1852-1933) wrote graceful stories chiefly about historical subjects.
Offered at the newly renovated Mackey Apartments, the R.M. Schindler-designed building that serves as the residents' home base, the exhibition will be on view from Friday, March 10 through Sunday, March 12, 2006. |
