My Bio
Hmmmmm...
Well, might as well start from the beginning.
Born and raised in Moscow Russia, spent a lot of time playing with
wooden toys...: )
Ok. May be my childhood was not that dramatic but I do remember standing
in line for toilet paper (although those memories are a little vague...:
).
At the age of six enrolled into Moscow Choir School of Alexander
Sveshnikov. Yes, a choir boy (as an FYI, nowadays, I bench-press 285
lb...: ) Along with know-how of choir singing, received eight years of
hard-core classical piano lessons. At which point decided to do
something slightly different with my life and attended Moscow College of
Furniture Industry. Since the change did not seem drastic enough, two
years later moved to United States Of America (by the way, Proud to be
an American!).
After another eight years of goofing off (during which period managed to
change a variety of jobs, receive a BA from UMASS Amherst and get my ear
pierced), decided to finally grow up and get a real job as a computer
programmer. Which is precisely the position that I hold right now with a
local insurance company in Farmington CT (believe it or not - I love
what I do for a living...: )
In as little spare time that I do have, I play in a theatre (Russian
Theatre Krug) as well as write music for some of their plays, visit
the gym religiously, regularly travel to Boston to visit family and friends
(people with tremendous amount of tolerance - God bless...:0)) and, oh
yes, write music, which is probably the reason you visited this site to
begin with.
Interesting fact - have not really touched the piano since 1990, until a
couple years ago, at which point music just came to me (I guess I was
not ready until then).
I look at my music as a medium of self-expression. I take my thoughts,
emotions, experiences and put them into melody.
Bare this in mind as you listen to it. It will probably mean something
different to you which does not mean that I said a wrong thing...: )
Anywho.
If you feel like it, drop me a line and tell me what you thought of it.
Thanks
Igor
