OLEG PAIBERDIN

Oleg Paiberdin

«Oleg Paiberdin's music attracts with its naturalness, precision and cleanliness of writing, emotional richness and plasticity of the form built without prejudices. His musical language is quite simple, but at the same time it does not contain any cliche, nothing is made mechanically or from force of habit, everything has been thoroughly heard out and verified by inner hearing. That leads to very fresh sound. He widely uses diatonicism that is not an archaic tonality but modality. It is a hard job to write in new diatonic techniques, as one should make a path on a blade of the knife to not lose attractiveness and intensity of sounding. Paiberdin succeeds in this.»
composer A. Shchetinsky

... As for his incarnation of himself ideas, he is exeedingly rational. Music result is always unexpected, bright and life-capable.
composer S. Berinsky
The Music Academy 3-4, Moscow, 1998

... There is brightness of self-expression, tendency towards audience reception, other words, openness his music and freedom in selection of means that is especially valuable.
