"Up Along the River" is not just an album of instrumental music, but it is a music journey. The nine tracks will guide you through spontaneous music revelations. I see this path as a path along the river called life. It has its source, and I targeted it my music experiments. All the compositions are arranged in a certain order, so I recommend you to listen to them in the same way. On my website, I have comments to each of the compositions – but I'm sure that most of the tracks with inspire your own rich feelings... The Mandala on the cover was painted by artist Vitaly Buhara especially for this album." Dmytro Sidorov
