Modern technologies allow for unlimited creativity, both in composing and producing music. I've been interested in music production ever since we had our first family computer; over the years and through countless experiments, I mastered the skills of recording, arranging, and mixing in my ever-evolving home studio.
With time it became clear that turning my own musical ideas into fully arranged, orchestrated pieces is within reach. I started to stretch my composing muscles, first in my own time, then through commissions from students and their families. Over time I developed my own composition style, with preference towards unusual rhythmic structures and complex melodies with contrapuntal elements -- however, I'm very much at home with pop, jazz, and classical music, as well as more experimental sounds.
You may listen to some of my compositions below, and on SoundCloud; among them are pieces written and produced for our music students, a solo album of covers and original compositions with vocalist Natela Elikishvili, and excerpts from the soundtrack of a proposed musical adaptation of Gogol's The Government Inspector.
