Artist History * His esthetics are based on the principle of an all-encompassing ideal of elevation and embellishment of the soul. He affirms: «I am absolutely persuaded that true Art is eternal and not confined to any particular period one might call “contemporary”. This is why its inner, esoteric dimension preoccupies me so much, and why I feel so deeply about sharing it. My goal is, above all, to restore the warmth of deep feeling through music, to awaken in man enough strength to believe in beauty. As the XXth century ends in crisis, I dream of a new Renaissance, whose strength would be drawn from all the vast possibilities already present in Russian music (and all World talented music!-and particulary, english rock of 70th, which I love so much)... And if I manage to transmit only a small parcel of these values to people, who are searching for them, I will consider that the efforts of my life will have been neither premature nor useless.» ATTENTION: CD "METAPHORS OF MAGNIFICO" in full version is available only by request at: arsxxi@aol.com Price: 10 USD
