We can say very little about
the music we play. The music itself could
say much more about us. Why is it interesting
to know where we are from, who we are, when were
we burn, and so on, if you come to listen
to music? Destiny is a strange
thing too… We could do something,
but we can’t. We could be somewhere,
but we are not. And what will be the
last point in our life? No one knows. So what is the point of
talking about ourselves? …It’s better to play… |

Seriously, I am not sure it was a good
idea to call this website and my main project 'LapinKulta'. But that was done
once and people already know the name. So I decide not to change it. Anyway,
this has no relation to beer. It is more a ritual. Meanwhile, I love to play free jazz and
all that's beyond it. Before I played hard bop. Some of my projects still
sound like hard bop. But the thoughts run outside of standards. And then... Then it tires me. That is why I prefer a
free style of music. Nevertheless, this does not exclude composition. Time
after time I write pieces of that kind, usually exclusively for particular
musicians. Anyway some pieces (a large number, really) just lay in heap and
wait for a chance to be performed. This person is also
reputed to be a very good sound engineer... All I could add to this is that
at the moment I have two recording studios in St.Petersburg, and I absolutely
agree with those people.☺ I really do not know
what to add to the above. I love my God and believe the music helps us to
live. PS. On photo above it is
me with Tim Dunne. Related articles about
