My Story is a quest for those emotions in music that are close to my heart; the deepest ones that constitute the essence of one’s life. It is in them that our musical DNA is encoded, though its expression may change over time under the influence of various experiences.The album’s programme has been carefully thought out. From the list of compositions reflecting my personal sensitivity and aesthetic (scored for various performing forces, from solo to symphonic), I could only select those written for violin and piano, plus one soloistic work. I attempted to build the narrative in such a way that it resembles the dramaturgy of a live concert. (…)

While listening to or performing music, I fulfil the desire to trace and tell part of my own story, to discover and share with the audience ‘a piece of myself’, rather than trying hard to adjust my own nature to what might appear as someone else’s tale. This is why I have always greatly cherished freedom of choice and interpretation. What I aim at is not superficial reappropriation of repertoires, genres or styles, but a strong identification with the given work and its atmosphere, which can turn that music into a mirror for my artistic soul. Hence the title of the album: My Story.
