RECORDING SESSION WITH ERIC MOUQUET, DEEP FOREST
 

At the time when I was singing opera I had a dream to collaborate with my favorite artist Eric Mouquet - the leader of the legendary group Deep Forest. I always was a big fan of this group and I really love their music.

Finally my dream has come true. We met in France and began our collaboration and the result ist the SIBERIAN TRILOGY PROJECT, inspired by the harmony and magic of my land. 

This is my experiment with an innovative musical ideas, which provided the inspiration for this musical project. We mixed different styles: lyric voice, electronic sounds and the ethnic elements. Together with Eric Mouquet we have composed songs in electro-world-music style. 

I’ve chosen to follow this way because I felt the need to share with my audience the colors, charm, mysteries and sounds of an unknown world. 

At the same time I have a possibility to tell the story of my life through this music, about the places where I came from, about incredible people that I have met in my life: shamans, princesses and ordinary people. I am seeking the way to create a different original musical mosaic. 

The stories I tell are related to Siberia, to the Altai mountains called Russian Tibet. Russia is a great country that has rediscovered its traditions after dark times. It boasts a rich folklore full of colors and shades that are very important for an artist’s creativity.

The new projects will be published at the beginning of 2018. Subscribe to the newsletter to stay updated on news!
