This is a truly beautiful piece you two have created together, Milana. Excellent work and interesting to read a little about your process.

I love this music.. It transports me to another place

ahhhh. just what I needed this afternoon.

Oh my god!,this music has closed my eyes!!

This set contains all my collaborations with other soundclouders made in 2014.

Important remark :) Some tracks in this set may contain piano, which is not played by me :) I feel rather uncomfortable when I receive warm comments for the piano, which I can't take credit for, so, please, pay attention to the track description :)

Patagonia.
An extreme point of a path.
Where every sensation is amplified by the power of nature.

Lyrics:

--------------------------------------------
There is no past... there is no future... They disappeared..

I did not notice how it happened ... 
and when ... 
and why ... 
an endless line of questions, line of dots instead of the answers..

I built a wall.. a wall around the current moments.. 
moments of joy, moments of happiness, of sorrow and sadness, memories and hopes, dreams and desires.

In my dreams ....I'm going to places where I have never been.. 
..stepping on my own footprints, which I left when my grand-grand-grandfather played in a crib with his rattle ...

I am going.. forward?.. backward?.. or maybe crawling.. or standing still.. but not flying.. 
I left my wings there - in the Past and the Future..

Oh, how I wish to break the wall to fly again.. 
To soar under the clouds.. under the stars 
How I wish to fly up there to find the lost wings.. 
How I wish to fly.. to find myself.
There is no past... there is no future... They disappeared..

Heritage X - Building a wall (with Milana Zilnik)

About a month ago I listened to and left some comments on this beautiful piece by Fivos Valachis: http://soundcloud.com/fivosvalachis/nocturnes-22-nov-promenades-en

Fivos asked if I can play it and I gave it a try. This is my interpretation of Fivos's original composition: first half I played it following the note sheet, second half I improvised on the same theme.

Elegy No.3 (piano interpretation by Milana Zilnik)

I had a couple of collabs with Ivan Ujevic (https://soundcloud.com/iohannes) before, adding ambient piano to his magnificent ambient guitar. The very recent one was just a couple of days ago: https://soundcloud.com/iohannes/elegy-no-3-ft-milana-zilnik
Same time Ivan asked me if I can play the solo piano version of the piece. He didn't have the note sheet so I asked if it's ok to just interpret the piece with an improvisation rather than trying to follow the original composition precisely. Ivan gave his approval and we recorded this interpretation by "cutting" the original into 5-10 seconds parts and improvising on each of them separately, then merging everything into one piece.

Mid Act

Playing piano since I was four and studied in a musical school for ten years. Though, I always felt that playing by notes and singing in a choir is not enough to become a musician. I needed to be able to play anything I want by ear so, by starting improvising, I've found my own style of playing. When I teach children to play piano or sing, I offer them improvisation right from the beginning. I wish I was taught that way, since until my mid-30s I had hard times to relax and believe in my ability to create my own music. Twelve years ago my husband (@arty-sandler) finally convinced me to record some of my improvisations and we opened this account on SoundCloud - it happened in July, 2012.

You won't find a single particular genre on my cloud: my musical tastes are rather eclectic. Jazz and soft rock are my favorites but I also play blues, classical, folk, middle-eastern, New Age, ambient and others. Piano and vocal are my main instruments but together with my husband we also experiment a lot with different arrangements and orchestrations. 

When we started uploading our music to SoundCloud back in 2012, it was first shy attempts to record my improvisations straight from a keyboard. Many things have evolved since then. Over the years we've grown into a professional recording and composing studio, with a conservatory grand piano in an acoustically treated room and a bunch of microphones and other recording equipment. We scored a few documentaries, short films and animations. This year my orchestral and piano solo works were performed by Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra for Bryan Arias’s ballet show based on “The Little Prince” story. We've published three books with my original scores for solo piano and released twenty original full-length albums (solo piano, multi-instrumental and original songs in various genres) and numerous singles that have been streamed over 70 million times across multiple platforms.

I am glad you stepped by into my musical world and appreciate your comments and following me.
