This album is a compilation of original pieces by Andrei Krylov and arrangement of traditional guitar music.
It was recorded in Aylmer, Quebec.
Music was inspired by Lake Vert and Lake Heney, storms and stars in a little cabin on the lakeshore surrounded by pines and granite rocks. By empty roads and colours of Quebec Autumn and distant memories of St.Petersburg.
Few words about some songs:
"Sunset" and "Sunrise" written and recorded in one day after amazing colours of a windy October day.
"Love song" is a real story of happiness and pain, of adoration and connection.
"Soledad" is loneliness.
"Morning Lake" and "Evening lake" is pictures of the water and sky, so deeply connected that you can't see the difference. They're both so deep and contain so many secrets and passions. The soul of the Universe is floating there.
"Moon Gypsy" is an immigrant story, story of the person who is Different, who does not belong Here, who is always lost in the madness of Reality.
Andrei Krylov studied guitar in Music School and University in St.Petersburg, Russia. In 1980's-90's he worked as a classical guitar teacher and performer for the State Concert Company #Lenconcert#.
