Since my childhood, I’ve always played the piano. Initially, it was easy melodies that I could hear from TV or the radio. However, as I started studying at musical school, neither my musical abilities, nor my potential became a problem. My only desire was to change famous classical pieces and play them on my own.
My teacher, a very fierce lady, was genuinely angry with me, once the school director told her:
“Give the child a chance to compose music by himself”.
Childhood Stories is one of the oldest musical pieces I’ve ever composed. It was created many years ago.
