g, p, RU
Musician / Composer of Electronic, Dance and Soundtrack

Russian musician and composer from Saint-Petersburg Valery Siver began to compose music at the age of 16. He received a professional musical education after having finished a classic guitar class of teacher Anatoly Khvan at the age of 27 at Music School for adults named after N. Rimsky-Korsakov in Saint-Petersburg. Valery Siver says about classic guitar that it is “an instrument playing on which a man presses it to his heart. In the process of creating music on the instrument a body and a sole of a composer resonate with vibrations of an instrument”. Creating of melodies, or as he says “process of their birth” is the most attractive aspect for Valery. “Process of melodies’ birth originates from feeling of ecstasy, soul vibration, all-embracing attraction to a musical instrument. The moment of touch to a string or a key gives fantastic pleasure”. Valery Siver’s debut as a composer took place in 2000 when his album entitled “Resettlementer” was published. The basis of musical creative work of Valery Siver is melodism (tuning) and results of searching of optimum modern forms of expressing those images, which are created by melodies and harmonies or images giving birth to the melodies and harmonies. Valery Siver says: “Instrumental music is created by a creature (a subject) which consists of two parts allegedly: a man being a source of emotions, feelings, excitements, fantasies and a musical instrument being a source of sound”. In 2001 as a producer Valery Siver released an album of dance remixes “Love Unlimited” in addition to his album “Resettlementer”.
