Hope EP

Galaxy

The 4th Prague Jazz Festival (1967)
Crescendo (RT) Quintet, Zoubov, Bacholdin, Frumkin, Satanovsky, Goretkin
Excerpt from a Czech newspaper review:
"The RT Quintet's best number is Zoubov's arrangement of the traditional theme "The Old Novgorod Song" with extraordinary solos by Bacholdin (trombone) and Zoubov (tenor sax) in an esctatic climax, after which both musicians with surprising exactness find their way together to a joint ending..."

Dont Speak (Bossa Nova)

Lyrics edited from the original song by Rihanna:
You had my heart, and we'll never be worlds apart
Maybe in magazines, but you'll still be my star
Baby 'cause in the dark, you can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you, I'll always share

Because when the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out to the end

Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella

These fancy things will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for infinity
When the war has took its part
When the world has dealt its cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart

Because when the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out to the end

Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella

You can run into my arms
It's okay, don't be alarmed, come in to me
There's no distance in between our love
So go on and let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more

Because when the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out to the end

Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella

We Will Be There

Another old live recording from the 80s with my dear friend and partner Milcho Leviev on the piano. Recorded at Vine St Bar & Grill (doesn't exist anymore) as a part of the Lingua Franca trio gig. The third member was an outstanding guitarist Dusan Bogdanovic, not playing on this tune.

As always with Milcho, it was impossible to predict where it would go and when it will end and I was trying to be on the level. We were definitely having fun and hope you will too. 

On The Sunny Side - with Milcho Leviev

A Memory Lane trip. Piece by Igor Saulski, recorded at home studio in Washington DC circa 1980, I'm playing tenor. Igor immigrated to the States a few years before me, ending our inspiring and very creative collaboration in Moscow.

Praise - Rough Live Mix  -  Aaron Parks Cover

I was born in 1936 in Moscow, Russia into the family of scientists and was supposed to become a scientist too. Following the family tradition I graduated from Moscow University with master’s degree in Physics and was offered a prestigious and exciting job other aspiring physicists would kill for.

But… insidious serpent of jazz had been seducing me since the early 50-ties. Stalin was still alive when I started to spend nights trying to tune to jazz programs of the Voice of America, BBC and other similar stations. In my sophomore year at the University I surrendered to the urge to play jazz and started first on clarinet and then saxophone and joined the early wave of jazz rebirth in the Soviet Union. It is worth mentioning that at this time playing jazz in the Soviet Union was considered not far from committing treason!

So, instead of working in physics, I went on the road with the Oleg Lundstrem big band, then by far the best in Russia. Then followed a 7 year engagement with Vadim Ludvikovsky Radio and Television big band and then until my departure to USA I worked as a studio musician recording and composing music for Studio Melodia and films.

In the late 50’s, 60’s and 70’s jazz music became accepted (or tolerated) in the USSR. In the 60’s Moscow had several jazz clubs, yearly jazz festivals and even started to send jazz musicians to jazz festivals in other countries.

I led and participated in many jazz groups, most famous being my Crescendo quartet, duo with keyboardist Igor Saulski, Barometer quintet, etc.

In 1984 I finally settled in Los Angeles where I live and continue composing and playing. During my 50+ years in music I had the honor and pleasure to share the stage and record with many jazz greats like Gary Burton, Chic Corea, Pete Cristlieb, Paul Gonsalves, Charlie Haden, “Tootie” Heath, Dick Hyman, Keith Jarrett, Milcho Leviev and no less important Russian musicians like Konstantin Bakholdin, Gennady Golshtein, German Lukyanov, Konstantin Nosov, Boris Rychkov and many, many others I can’t list for the lack of space.
