Exemplary Images [Silvia Andrei plays Picasso]

Silvia Andrei, a young student in Bucharest "translates" one of Pablo Picasso's poems into music, discovering its arpeggio structure. Bellow is the Romanian version. Too bad, seems impossible to find it in English, although you can tumble upon many other poems of him in English, easily on the web*.
