The nights of the month with two Full Moons were the source of inspiration for this album. My guitar was an instrument through which the spirits of the lake, water and stars spoke. The words of those who meditated and lived there before became the words of these songs. On the night of the Full Moon the loon has revealed to me the meaning of its calls and carried me away on a flight to the stars. What happened during this month will never again be repeated. The mystery, light and spirit of the Full moon lake will forever remain in this music.

Sunrise. She That Rides Over the Water. Poem in Russian by Andrei Krylov.

Полусонное море вздыхает на камни,
Из лиловых туманов растет тишина.
Ты приходишь неслышно, и символом тайны
Загорается в небе уснувшем Луна.

Ни души в лунном свете, лишь вздыбленный берег,
Изумленно впивает твою красоту.
И холодные волны раскрыв свои двери,
Призывают печально в свою пустоту.

Ты проходишь над ними, воды не касаясь,
Прямо в черный и скорбный, немой горизонт.
И какие - то звуки измученно тают,
И пол - моря неярко цветет бирюзой.

Но свеченье бесплотное медленно гаснет,
И ничто не звучит уж в безрадостной тьме.
И узнать на земле нет ничьей уже власти,
Кто была ты прекрасная, - Жизнь или Смерть?...
