:: History::
Music entered my life almost incidentally. It is with these simple words that Mikha l Rudy, pianist of world-famous Russian origin, begins its incredible story - at the same time panting detective story and initiatory tale - where art and life become confused. Mikha l Rudy draws us away in a whirl of feelings and extreme situations. Its first experience with music in a tunnel ruins it, its adolescence in the hot district of a working city of the south of Ukraine encircled with rival bands which fight in the knife, its resistance to the agents of the KGB in Moscow, its success in Competition Margaret Long in Paris, political asylum asked in France in dramatic circumstances, its spiritual search in the orthodox monasteries or in the Himalayas, its artistic reflexion, or else its meetings with the biggest personalities - Rostropovitch, Noureev, Karajan, Messiaen, Chagall - make this book a true symphony to the glory of life. The look of Mikha l Rudy is that of a poet, loving and burning, roguish and tragic. Self-educated person, having learnt French by reading Diderot and Proust, he always writes. For him, literature is also important as music. With this first book, he signs a surprisingly rich and intense work. sources: Editions of the Rock 2008
