"My name is Oleksii Rybak. I was born in 1992/09/03. I like music since the
Childhood. My first music experience started in early childhood, I began to play cello,and it was really very hard for me. But I didn’t satisfy with one musical instrument; I wanted to play on all of them.
I was born in Cherkassy, Ukraine. Ukraine is a country with very rich traditional music, and I am proud of it. And it so happened with me to start playing on Ukrainian folk instrument dulcimer, and I really very like it. I like a lot classical music and folk music, and try to input some features of folk dances, songs into classical music. My favourite composers are M. Ravel, F. Chopin, P. Tchaikovsky, and B. Bartok. Now I’m studying in the National academy of music of Tchaikovsky in Kyiv at the composer's department. I like to compose my own music. When you do it, you feel that you can play on any instrument as you want, and my old dream has come true. And it's a great miracle to have an opportunity to describe your feelings by the sounds. I wrote music for different instrumentation, I have pieces for chamber orchestra, choir, dulcimer, piano, violin, clarinet and etc. In my music I don’t want to describe some things around us, I want to describe feelings that do the people feel. I want to give happiness to the people, and to see their smile when they hear my music. Also I work now as main conductor in the folk ensemble “Kalyna”. The ensemble has a ballet, folk choir and orchestra. I wrote many arrangements of folk songs, and have great experience in it. A great influence on my creation did a ballet. I like how the music combine with body movements, and that is why my music is so danceable. I hope you will smile when you will listen to my music."
