Original Music
This is originally a piece from A.Lowery’s printed collection “The Elements of Ballet” for the ballet schools’ accompanists. This electronic version has more comic and cartoonish character; it is funny, jumpy, and extremely happy. – Muted trumpet, xylophone, marimba, honky-tonk duo, button accordion, percussion // Length 1:20, 121 bpm, 2/4
“…Sufi and wise man, remembered for his funny stories and anecdotes. He appears in thousands of stories, sometimes witty, sometimes wise, but often, too, a fool or the butt of a joke. (…) Nasreddin often appears as a whimsical character of a large Turkish, Persian, Albanian, Armenian, Azerbaijani, Bengali, Bosnian, Bulgarian, Chinese, Greek, Gujarati, Hindi, Judeo-Spanish, Kurdish, Romanian, Serbian, Russian, and Urdu folk tradition of vignettes, not entirely different from zen koans”. Nasreddin – Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasreddin
Accordion, honky-tonk, drums, percussion // Length 2:53, 88 bpm, 4/4

This is a piece composed in imitation of the style of old music from the British Islands. It consists of 2 parts: 1) a moderately-moving 1st, reminding of an old ballade 2) and a faster, more “dancy” second part at 2:10. (The tempo signatures may seen confusing, but while listening you will discover that the description of the feel is correct). The parts can exist as separate cues. Harp, oboe, English horn, flute piccolo, tambourine
Length 3:08, 1 part -63 bpm, 6/8; 2 part – 114 bpm, 2/4

This a parody on a very famous classical piece ‘Flight of the Bumblebee” by N.Rimsky-Korsakov. Paradoxically, it was also inspired by the imagery and feel of a brilliant Russian animation (“claymation”) “Yesteryear’s Snow Was Falling”, which has became classic in Russia since its creation in 1983.
Knowing about the Bumblebee origins, you can easily guess what’s going on in the piece. (If you are familiar with the plot of the original tale, you’ll find the end a bit different, though. 
) If you listen to it in headphones, the effect will be at its best. – Synthesizers, accordion, honky-tonk, insect killer racket, airplane, crowd… // Length 1:29, 140 bpm, 4/4

This is one of the pieces from A.Lowery’s printed collection of classical ballet exercises “The Elements of Ballet” for the ballet schools’ accompanists. This version is for two pianos; the mood of the piece is very happy and inspiring to dance.
Piano duo // Length 1:15, 72 bpm 3/8 (or 206 bpm, if to consider it as 3/4)
This is a humorous little piece, originally from my printed collection “The Elements of Ballet” for the ballet schools’ accompanists. This version was arranged on Roland Fantom for adding a distinct cartoonish character to it. It’s suitable for animation, comedy or a commercial. The imagery could easily relate to young children, animals, or just something funny. – Synthesizers // Length 1:19, 148 bpm, 4/4
This is an upbeat piece with a hint of grotesque. The intricate, broken rhythm of ostinato strings in the middle layer adds an undercurrent feel of hesitancy, which at the end results in a sudden pushing in of a very resolute piano. 🙂 – Solo xylophone, piano, strings, drums, percussion instruments and electric bass // Length 2:04, 158 bpm, 4/4
Blue tag = for a demonstration only; not for sale. The name says it all. This is a very emotional piece with an expressive melody and profound feelings. The music might make you think about things we can’t return, or people that are gone, but along with that it still has a warm glow to it. The end gives a powerful conclusion in a major key. – Piano, oboe, strings, winds // Length 3:14, 73 bpm, 4/4
Blue tag = for a demonstration only; not for sale. A chamber piece with a dreamy and mysterious feel to it. The night is coming, the clock is ticking… The piece could be suitable for a children’s movie, a fairy-tale or a fantasy.
Strings, glockenspiel, percussion // Length 2:04, 60 bpm, 4/4
