about

Mėlyno Smėlio Piramidės - mano debiutinis poetiškos, šiuolaikinės muzikos gitaros albumas.

Nuo Japonijos salų iki Amerikos žemyno erdvėje nusidriekusios kompozicijos – kaip piramidės žmogų kelia aukštyn į dangų. Kitą kartą mus nuramintų savo pagrindo stabilumu, tik šiandien jos iš smėlio, suneštos vėjo, pastoviai nepastovios.

Nuo Čiurlionio gyvenimo iki du tūkstančiai dvidešimtų metų aprėptame laike užkoduotas žiemos sapno liudijimas. Praskėlus aną akmenį – vien smėlio dulkės. Tintinnabuli !

Mėlyno Smėlio Piramidės (en. The Blue Sand Pyramids) is my debut album of poetic, contemporary guitar music.

From the islands of Japan to the American continent, the compositions stretch across the space - like pyramids lifting a person up to the sky. Next time they would reassure us with the stability of their base, only today they are made of sand, carried by the wind, and are permanently unstable.

The time spanning from the life of Čiurlionis to the year two thousand and twenty encodes the testimony of a winter dream. When the stone is broken up, it is only dust of sand. Tintinnabuli !
