Game Of Shadows (two Flutes)

Like many composers, I want my music to speak to many. I desire to share my world of music with others and to have a power to touch, move and reach out to the listener. My ultimate goal is to communicate a meaning -- and I’m doing that not by “inventing” a language, but using one like a poet, attempting to enrich it from inside

I don’t believe in passing judgments about a value of the piece based on a preference for a language, which is often confused with style or originality.

I, however, find that music of my (Balkan) and other cultures and traditions continuously replenish, inspire and broaden my musical expression. I assimilate and filter through these influences in a very personal way, not imitating, or making a fad out of them.
