Stella - Adagio (Pink Coloured Vinyl)

Stella - Adagio (Pink Coloured Vinyl)

Almost as soon as Stella Chronopoulou began writing Adagio, her fifth album as Σtella, she knew the time had finally come to sing in Greek, her native tongue. It would be a first. She started the record almost by accident in 2019, during an 11-hour boat ride to the island of Anafi.

Adagio is a 27-minute meditation on love and desire, rest and time. The album was produced by Σtella and mixed by Edmund Irwin-Singer. Though the bulk of it is indeed sung in English, as all her records have been, Σtella also delivers her first two songs in Greek here—“Omorfo Mou,” the one that began on aboat, and a cover of a 1969 cult classic of the Greek New Wave, Litsa Sakellariou’s “Ta Vimata.” It is a sign of the self-assurance that radiates throughout these tender and smitten little tunes.
