way to go Betinis!

Friend and fellow composer (and sometimes blog participant) Abbie Betinis just got some incredibly good ink. She was featured as a young artist "on the verge" by the Minneapolis Star Tribune. And, if that wasn't enough, Minnesota Public Radio highlighted the article on their website. The Twin Cities love this girl! And rightfully so. She is brilliant as they come.

In the spirit of a some friendly ribbing, here she is singing for none other than her fellow Grecian, Yanni. She described the experience as "me making up Greek words over some weird electronic music while Yanni sat and listened." I would like to think that she was employing a complex compositional technique known as "improvisation" (or is it "deception"...hmm, I don't know).












Way to go, Betinis! Yanni-in-leather-pants-playing-like-a-million-keyboards say you are number one! (By the way, my crude internet approximation of a funny Greek accent was to leave the 's' off of "says".)
