Lubomyr Melnyk (born December 22, 1948 in Munich) is a Ukrainian composer and pianist who has pioneered ‘Continuous Piano Music’. Affected by the minimalist movement in the early 1970s, he has developed his own unique language for the piano, named after the principle of maintaining a continuous, unbroken stream of sound. Melnyk fell for the piano at an early age and was given lessons as a young child after his family emigrated to Canada after the iron curtain came down; he was immediately transfixed by the possibilities of the instrument. “On the piano, you can create whole worlds,” he reflects. “I realized that it could be an orchestra, a choir of sound.” http://www.lubomyr.com http://www.erasedtapes.com
