A Russian band with a variable number of musicians, LITTLE TRAGEDIES was born from the will of composer and musician Gennady ILYIN to experiment new musical expression forms. More particularly, his art could be described as an hybrid mixture of Seventies-like Progressive rock, fusion jazz-rock and contemporary classical musics. The whole thing played through vintage keyboards reminding of the seventies. The Paris Symphony" has been composed in the mid-Nineties and recorded in 1997, but never officially released until now. Gennady ILYIN, certainly one of the best keyboardist in Progressive rock today, has composed it after a visit in the City of Light, for a trio formula including drums, bass and keyboards. Analog keyboards and compositions are in a Seventies spirit, filled with a specific slavic atmosphere, neo-classic sequences and organ parts reminding RACHMANINOV or PROKOFIEV. What else to say, apart from "Splendid" ?...
