Το περιοδικό hi-fi από την Αυστραλία, στο τελευταίο του τεύχος, δημοσιεύει μια μεγάλη συνέντευξη του Δημήτρη Μπακλαβά της Ypsilon Electronics.

O Δημήτρης τα λεέι όλα εκεί. Πως ξεκίνησε, πως δημιουργησε την Ypsilon, πως επηρεάστηκε στη μουσική και πως τα κατάφερε να φτάσει η Ypsilon παντού. Εμείς αναδιμοδισευουμε την τελευταία ερώτηση της συνέτευξης.

PX: What experience in audio is the most memorable for you?
Δημήτρης: I must say, the biggest experience for me was sound engineering a Mikis Theodorakis performance with the East German Orchestra of 120 players, supported by a large chorus. It was ‘Canto General’ that he’d originally composed in 1971 when he was living in Paris, but updated for this 1991 performance. Mikis is known in the West mainly for scoring the Zorba movie, but in Greece he is a legendary figure. He himself attended the performance, which was in the ancient ‘Dion’ amphitheatre. It was a major challenge for me to wire up this concert for sound; such a huge area to cover, where the work was performed in front of an audience of several thousand people. I mixed the concert and I designed the horn speakers through which the orchestra played to this very enthusiastic audience. It was a big thrill for me.
