guitar by Denis Sorokin
buying this album you are support the Ukraine refugees, the all money from all sales of my music on bandcamp directly goes to support the social programs of the Apostolic Ortodox Church in Saint-Petersburg, which helps with evacuation, clothes and medicine.
Here is my first ever solo album completed by my own music. Something was improvised, something was composed. Music by which I was inspired - Ferran Fages, Eva-Maria Houben, Michael Pisaro, Taku Sugimoto, Kristofer Svensson, Morton Feldman, Fredrik Rasten, Olivier Messiaen.
With many thanks to my good old friend Sergei Tumanov who inspired me to make this album and Fjodor Gladilin who made great work to prepare it to be listenable out of my DIY homemade recordings.
