Quintessence: Professional composer and guitarist, who writes and performs music in a variety of styles: Classical, Flamenco, Jazz, Hip-Hop, Fusion, Folk, Blues, etc., as well as combination of styles using different types of guitar. Official Bio: A music scholar, professional composer and performer come from a multi-ethnic background. I always experiments with variety of styles, looking for a new sound and ways to show what guitar is capable of. I started my music career in the late 70's. I studied, taught music and performed for a variety of audiences in Europe, Scandinavia and Russia. I performed solo concerts and as part of a band. When I immigrated to the U.S. in 1997, I started my life and music career from scratch. Surviving in a new environment I beat the odds and managed to have solo concert tours on the East and the West Coasts, as well as the Nation-wide tour, and signed a contract with MTV. I performed on such legendary stages as CB's Gallery in New York City and Celebrity Center International in Hollywood, CA. I have been invited to give radio interviews in New York and Massachusetts, including a two-hour show dedicated entirely to my works. My music in the album "Spanish Image" was selected for "All Songs Considered" on National Public Radio-NPR. Now I perform as solo musician and as One-Man-Orchestra, give private lessons and teach in schools.
