About
Composer, orchestrator, and author of musical performances
Founder of Pop Opera — a chamber musical theatre in Saint Petersburg
Today I live and work in Paris.
I collaborate with orchestras, ensembles, theatres, and simply with anyone who needs music.
Not necessarily for large stages — sometimes a sincere idea is enough to begin.

Arrangement & Orchestration
Arrangement and orchestration give music a new brilliance!
Arrangement reinterprets a song by playing with chords, rhythm, or style — from rock to jazz.
It shapes the overall mood for a group or choir.

It shapes the overall mood for a group or choir.
Orchestration distributes every note among the instruments: violins for the melody, trombones for the bass lines.
The arranger sketches the idea, the orchestrator polishes every detail.
Together, they bring both pop hits and symphonies to life!

Orchestration of the piece "Battle"
The composer asked to transform a piano piece into an orchestral number for inclusion in a suite.
This task required a complete revision of the tonal plan, followed by full orchestration.
(First video — the original version with the composer's comments, second video — the orchestration created by me.)
The audio in the examples comes from the Sibelius Ultimate orchestral library.

Orchestration of the piece "Ballad"
This piece already had a well-developed tonal plan, so I focused exclusively on the orchestration.
(First video — orchestration with "computer" sound, second video — orchestral performance.)
