For each musical piece there is a story hidden inside. Enjoy this "Hidden Inside", played on the virtual version of The Giant. Until recently it was the biggest piano in the world but now it's creator, David Klavins, made even bigger Regina. I got the chance to play The Giant in real life and I hope to get a chance to play Regina this year!

The video story is edited by my husband, compiled using clips from VideoBlocks.

Partita for a Winter Night

Orchestrated with VIRHARMONIC BOHEMIAN VIOLIN  and CELLO and EAST WEST HOLLYWOOD ORCHESTRA

Denis Davidov's poetry for which I wrote this music. 

Жестокий друг, за что мученье?
Зачем приманка милых слов?
Зачем в глазах твоих любовь,
А в сердце гнев и нетерпенье?
Но будь покойна только ты,
А я, на горе обреченный,
Я оставляю все мечты
Моей души развороженной...

И этот край очарованья,
Где столько был судьбой гоним,
Где я любил, не быв любим,
Где я страдал без состраданья,
Где так жестоко испытал
Неверность клятв и обещаний,-
И где никто не понимал
Моей души глухих рыданий!

1834-1835
Д.Давыдов. Стихотворения.

For my mom who introduced me to the beauty in sounds and colours. For my father, who shaped my diverse musical tastes and pushed me into improvising. For my husband who inspired me to come back to music and keep going no matter what challenges I might face. And for my amazing children, who I love and hope to pass this tradition to...

These past months have been challenging for all. I've been into my musical cave working on my upcoming album - the most challenging album we've ever attempted to produce. Almost all the recordings are done: Hang, drums and other percussion, piano and cello, even vocal for some tracks. What is left is to finish all the vocal recordings, hopefully, next week. This album will feature Phil DiMercurio on the drums, Yamaha artist Yoed Nir on cello and Canadian singer-songwriter Alexa Ray on most of the vocals. And then it will all be mixed by Grammy-featured Matthew Shell. Such a cool lineup and we all hope that you will enjoy this album when it goes out on Halloween. The name is "Abracadabra!" and it's full of magic, enchanting spells and mysterious witchcraft. Stay tuned :)

Liebestraume No 3 (F. Liszt). Performed by Milana

Covid 19 has had a worldwide impact. The obvious statistic are those that have been infected & those that have died. Job losses, lockdowns & isolation have also taken a toll on people all over the planet. As a musician now unable to perform live & earn my living, I have turned to my main instrument, the piano, for an outpouring of emotion. This piece entitled "Struggle", is a piano improvisation during these unprecedented times.
