indeed... so thankful there's yet time to fill the world with the Music which flows through us so freely!  Salut, maesrtro. :)

sounding beautiful, man.  captured wonderfully.

wonderful piece of music..your piano play is amazing 🎵

There’s something deeply human in the way these notes unfold — as if the fingers were reaching out, almost urgently, to grasp a time that slips away, yet still belongs to us. Each phrase feels like a breath, an unspoken thought, a gentle touch to the heart.
There’s still time isn’t just a title — it’s a whisper that comforts and encourages, a quiet prayer born from a sincere, improvised gesture, and for that, all the more real.
— Francesco Adornetto

Lovely improvisation, played with skill and sensitivity.

A sweet and charming octopus swims close to the seabed, swirling its tentacles. It is inquisitive, wondering what is above.

There's Still Time - Improvised Piano Piece

Fall Away

"THE HATCH" - the opening track from the upcoming "METAMORFOSI" is LIVE on streaming platforms! And we have a short lot of magnificently illustrated CDs as well!

This story is not about Alice. Although, we've all had Alice in our lives. As well as the Cheshire Cat, Mad Hatter, Queen of Hearts and Jabberwock, in one form or another. This story is about you. This story is about me. 

These insane days I feel like more than ever I want to open some hidden hatch inside my piano to fall through a rabbit hole into a fantasy land, away from all the madness that I see around..

Many thanks to Yoed Nir for the magnificent cello, Vitaliy Tkachuk for the magical guitar, Craig Akin for the dramatic bass, Phil DiMercurio for the drums and percussion, Diana Lloyd for shaping my voice, Justin Gray for bringing it all home in one stunning mix, and Anastasia Frenkel for illustrating the story in such a wondrous way! And, of course, thanks to my husband, Arty Sandler, for believing in three crazy things before breakfast and making them real!

Victor Birkan resides in Beer Sheva, Israel. In his youth, he obtained a classical musical education in St. Peterburg, Russia. Even then, he showed an interest in piano improvisation, although his teachers did not encourage it too much. Then came a long break… Victor tried different professions – biologist, computer IT. His passion for music did not interrupted, but he only started playing regularly again around 2016, and in 2018 began posting his compositions.
After receiving positive feedbacks on social media, he focused on improvised music. He is deeply convinced that improvisation is not a privilege of jazz, it is the classical piano that finds its way to people's hearts. Victor Birkan never prepares for his recordings. Sitting down at the piano, he has no idea where to start, what will be in the middle and how he will finish. The melody will come from somewhere... He seeks to capture pure emotion and splash it onto the keyboard. Practically does not use computer effects. His listeners often write about the "magic", bewitching influence of his compositions.
Over the past year, Victor’s composition, “Between Night and Day”, has been nominated for Best Solo Piano Single by the ONE WORLD MUSIC RADIO, and some interesting compositions have been created in collaboration with Yellow Roze Records label. Victor is constantly striving to expand his audience.
