Thanks! Well, I'd say in this album we offer a view to the past and a step to the future. I wrote the long suite around 15 years ago, and, while there's some parts following the style of the material...

Very nice words, thanks. I think the easiness and naturality comes partly because the great musicians playing in the album, I gave them the scores and they took them to another level. The bassoonist,...

Thanks guys, hope you enjoy it. And thanks JKL2000, actually I delayed the release of this album for doing my best with the cover, that tries to reflects the Olkhon Island's atmosphere.
Thanks Simon! I'm very happy of this trio, Ivan is an amazing drummer and Arkady is great too, both super creative and powerful musicians.
Here is a bit of us live with the guys in Moscow:

Thanks for the nice words. In the last years i used to pass half the year in Russia, until the Covid forced me to stay here since April. In the case of Sada and some of Carta Marina too, I sent them...
