Piano, French horn, voice, percussion, electronics, live processing
“Flying” is an original musical project and artistic vision of pianist and French horn player Tsvetan Momchilov.
Tsvetan’s vision is for music to guide us on a spiritual journey, where merging with nature becomes a natural outcome. Happiness emerges as we fill the inner world with silence and open ourselves to the music beyond. The rhythmic flow of notes and harmonies becomes a refuge for the restless mind in the contemporary world. Day and night, light and darkness, Sun and Moon form a continuous cycle — alternating expressions of a single whole.
Tsvetan’s music leads us through vivid, multicolored landscapes and rapidly shifting scenes, while at the same time revealing the rhythm of our own heartbeat in resonance with the music.
The concert combines elements of contemporary classical and ambient music.
