«Etude nello spirito di Scarlatti». Op. 129.

In the previous version, at the whim of the author, the dancers had to move like sleepy flies. Now this bug has been fixed :)))

«Ländler Tanz». Op. 07. (new, corrected tempo of execution).

A play from seven years ago. Relevant again. Again the fate of the world is decided in Kyiv. Hold on, Ukraine! We are all with you and for you!

«Chervona Kalina». Ukrainian folk song

Fragments of cuneiform writing similar to notes remained from the musical culture of Ancient Sumer. One such fragment brought us only two measures of a melody composed five thousand years ago. I tried to imagine how it could really sound in those distant times...

In our troubled times, let's try to have fun, as in the days of Louis XIV - the "Sun King" :)))

«Wolfie und Stanzi». Op.151

Disappointment...

The second attempt to perform Esta Noche de Luna in my translation into Russian. This time I used a fragment of the "backing track" of the orchestra of the 30s. I hope now I was able to better convey the atmosphere of that era ...

Esta noche de luna

This Hungarian wine "Egri Bikavér" ("Bull's blood from Eger") was the favorite wine of my youth...
But with age, I have leaned towards white wine. However, you can't fool your memory :)
This is the third piece on the "alcohol theme" :) The first two are here:

Music, poetry, rehearsals with musicians, singing... In the absence of all this, you have to do everything yourself... :)

Poetry in Russian:

Хмурым утром, холодным, туманным,
С корабля я сошел на причал.
Не найдя в море лжи и обмана
Все, что в тщетной надежде искал.

Крики чаек, 
Серых волн прибой.
Разве ждал встретиться с тобой?
Словно чудо, ты явилась вдруг,
И светом все озарила вокруг!

Понял я - путь мой был не напрасен,
И не зря ветер дул в паруса.
Радость жизни вернула мне снова
Глаз твоих изумрудных краса.

И теперь, позабыв все печали,
Каждый вечер я жду, ангел мой,
Нашей встречи с тобой, чтоб сначала,
Жизнь прожить под счастливой звездой!

English translation:

Gloomy morning, cold, foggy...
From the ship I went to the pier,
Not finding in the Sea of Lies
All that I sought in vain.

The screams of seagulls,
Surf of gray waves...
I did not hope to meet someone like you.
Like a miracle, you suddenly appeared
And the light illuminated everything around!

I realized that my path was not for nothing,
And wind blew into the sail not without reason -
The beauty of your emerald eyes
Returned me again the joy of life.

And now, forgetting all the sorrows,
Every evening, my angel,
I wait meeting with you,
To live my life again
Now under a lucky star...

"Emerald Eyes"

A very, very long time ago, when I was 18 years old and a fan of the Beatles, I promised myself: “When I turn 64, I will definitely sing this song.”
Well, the time has come to fulfill my promise...
This karaoke came out of it :)

"When I'm 64" (cover)

Lyrics - Andrey Voznesensky
Music - Nadir Shamuhamedov
(When I sang it for the first time, I was 23 years old and madly in love...)

English Translation:

Play, grasshopper, play,
Oh, my acoustic grasshopper!
And in these delicious musics
Save all meadows of August...

Play the azure of forest
And  the organs of Lielupe pines,
Sing me a song about the happiness
Of an flighty woman,
Because she is all, I live by...

Play, green music fan!
Our romance is orchestrated with sadness...
Love is not a musical toy,
But it’s also scary to break it.

Play, grasshopper, play, don't stop,
After all, your life is even shorter,
Than the lives of other musicians,
Even though they are not eternal too...

Let it be (cover)

From my youth I always wanted to compose something in this style. It's time to finally try :) Music, lyrics and performance - Nadir Shamuhamedov. Special thanks to Jane Johnson for proofreading the text.

I hope, one day, in the blooming May
I'll bring a ring and you'll say "Ok",
My heart will be filled with peace and light,
And flying bees will buzz gently "Right!"

Daisy!
My love made me almost crazy,
Don't let me think so hazy,
Now, oh my love,
Just tell me: "Yes I do…"
You and I
As tea and pie,  
I know, you love me too…

Even if it comes later
Maybe in a year or two,
Spring anyway
Will come and play,
Knowing  what tricks to do.
