The series of children’s songs The Lazy Dragon by Giorgos Hatzipieris counts two decades of presence, five records, over two hundred million views on YouTube and huge acceptance by the public, children and adults alike. Many of the songs in the series have become classics, are included in official teaching materials, and feature regularly in children’s choir programs. The notable Cypriot musician Giorgos Hatzipieris with the 13 songs of Lazy Dragon caused a small revolution in 2005 in the field of children’s discography. This is an album where the songs have wonderful music, neat orchestrations and absence of didacticism from the lyrics (which also belong to the composer). What we have here is plenty of humor, sensitivity and beautifully performed songs by important voices.
