“Yuriy Seredin’s music has a lot of original composer decisions and deep emotional expressions. This is the music of our time and our level of drama. His concerts are unlikely to flirt with the audience, instead it will be an exciting and beautiful experience. That is why Yuriy can be called one of the most interesting Ukrainian composers.”
