Concerto for Two Violins and Orchestra
Concerto for Two Violins and Orchestra is an exploration of the relationship between our inner and outer worlds, a reflection on its coevality. Beauty and drama, pain and love all appear and dissolve in the unique imaginary of this work.
The piece received First Prize and People's Choice Award at the Petrov Orchestral Music competition in St. Petersburg, Russia
"Three Wishes", jazz suite for flute and piano
Three movements of this highly engaging suite create a unique mix of classical and jazz styles.
Three movements bring a listener to three desirabel places, Paris, New York and Rio.
