I wrote this cycle when I moved to the Netherlands, as a kind of farewell statement to my past self. I wanted people to be able to play it on the piano and sing it at the same time.

The compositions of Maxim Shalygin (*1985 in Kamianske, Ukraine) include chamber, vocal, symphonic, and electroacoustic music, as well as music for theater, ballet, and film. The composer expands the traditional palette of playing techniques, resorting less to »extended techniques« than to unfolding the sounds of the instruments in all their congenial sonority. He wants to »combine a wide range of techniques with a psychological insight and a spirituality. No academic formulas hence, nor avant-garde radicalisms, but rather a self-conceived scale of playing techniques in its own right that never severs the ties with sonority, and thus allows for maintaining a thoroughly tonal language.«

Maxim Shalygin began studying composition with Irina Ivashenko at the age of 16. In 2004, he trained for one year with Boris Tishchenko at the N. Rimsky-Korsakov State Conservatory in St. Petersburg (RU). He received his first master’s degree in 2010 from the National Academy of Music in Kiev (UA). In 2011, he received his second master’s degree from the Royal Conservatory in The Hague (NL), where he studied with Cornelis de Bondt and Diderik Wagenaar. He currently lives and works in the Netherlands. Shalygin has been composer-in-residence at Izolyatsia [UA], Storioni Festival [NL] and Soundsofmusic Festival (NL). His works are performed at music festivals worldwide.
