Following in his father's footsteps (who brought the accordion to classical music performances), Peter Dranga introduced the accordion to the Russian stage. As the first person to do this, Dranga created a new genre which revived this forgotten instrument. After his first performance, this new pop style developed rapidly. Now he has many fans and imitators. Due to his contributions, accordion presentations have become an entertaining spectacular as he manages to dance with this heavy instrument on parquet and even on ice.

Classical guitar music, includes pieces by S.L. Weiss, F.Sor, A.Barrios, and the personally composed "So Far Away" - a contemporary romantic guitar piece that been very well received by his live performances.

Have seen this guy plaing guitar in different "Chapters" store around Toronto, his performance is good, but what surprised me, he can't read the music, his sidereading is absolutely terrible….

That's for you to judge…..

It seems that every generation has its wunderkind in various areas of endeavor. This generation of trumpet players has Sergei Nakariakov. He is truly the Vladimir Horowitz, Jascha Heifitz, or Art Tatum of the trumpet and flugelhorn. Unlike many technical phenoms, Nakariakov carries off his musical alchemy with the warmth of a cashmere blanket, and the sincerity of a country physician. His sound is as sweet as a bride saying "I do." There is no room for improvement, or criticism. He is the Malcolm McNabb of his generation.
