Started learning piano around 6 or 7 years old. Started improvising a lot as a child. With the help of a great teacher, he stated writing down music and so was improvising and composing. He moved to NY when he was 11 years old. Started learning composition more seriously at that time. He writes most of his music through improvisation. He improvises, records it and tries to find stuff he likes. He says that he can’t compose without the piano. The connection for us is that Artemy goes to Bard College where Dan and I graduated from. He is currently a sophomore. He is in the conservatory which is a 5-year program. He studies with Joan Tower. Dan comments that Joan was an inspiration for him in how she forced him to work with rhythmic subdivisions. We discuss Artemy’s compositional process in more detail. He improvises until he finds something he likes. Then he manually types it into Sibelius. “It’s good to hear different things you can do which are hard to imagine on pen and paper.” “I’m used to using the computer as a compositional tool.” He’s composed for many different types of orchestrations. Hasn’t done solo piano In a while. Recently did a string quartet composition. Did an ensemble with flute, clarinet, piano, cello. Orchestra. Solo pieces. “Singing out loud helps you figure out intuitively what you think should be the next thing.” “I think of the ensemble that I’m going to write for. I have hopefully people in mind to play it.” “I want to have people in mind to work with.” When asked which composers he likes: Ravel, Debussy, Beethoven, Bach. Joan Tower. Philip Glass. John Adams. Julia Wolf. Missy Muzzoli. “I love harmony. Good harmony in a simple pop song.” “I like Disco.” You can check out all of Artemy’s recordings on his website with links to soundcloud. https://artemys.art He took a class on film composition and he wants to pursue that in addition to composing for the concert stage. #MusicProduction #DIYMusician #MusicRecording #MusicTechnique #Creative Music #10,000Hours #GetchaSomeProductions #TheHandshake #GetchaSomeGuitar #OliversMusicalGenius #ErosPragma #Mitochondriac #PerryNice #ServantsOfUniversalLove…
