The tracks on this album are a collection of my best songs, new and old. For a long time I wanted to put these songs on the CD, recording them in solo versions, without other musicians or singers. Each piece is dedicated to someone or something, either explicitly or for personal reasons. Chasing Ogres and Falling Moon are the musical representation of my Russian soul and, indirectly, dedicated to my Russia. My Little Alex is dedicated to my grandson, Anastasia to my daughter, Solitudine to my wife Elena and Luciana's Dream to my former girlfriend Luciana. Nostalgia and Speranza (Hope) are self-explanatory. It is a music full of feelings, passions and pains but also of hope and joy. Two other songs are a tribute to the great virtuoso genius of Russian Nikolay Rimskiy-Korsakov and my myth, the Soviet player bajan Viktor Gridin. I wish you good listening.
