Valeriy Stepanov Fusion Project - The Sun

[@TomRivieremusic]

After reading all the comments there is nothing more to say. I am lucky to hear this musician while I am still around.

[@mastorey1]

Can't stop listening to this and see the joy in his face. A true phenom

[@frankus54]

People from the West don't realize just how many skilled musicians there is in Russia. The culture is such I went to a Prokofiev piano concert at the Moscow conservatorium and the majority of the audience was young girls. Classical pianists can be pop stars in Russia. Also there are some killer jazz players.

[@davidsonalby6743]

@valeriy stepanov this one of the most beautiful track ever,so soulful,so blue,so expressive and yet as beautiful as The sun,I wish you lovely and safe days ahead. Thank you.

[@DrIIGerMusic]

Utterly unbelievable. This kid takes everything that was done before him & stretches forward & upward towards a point where nobody can go past him. This the peak, in this style/genre I'd say. Hat off to you stepanov.

[@elenasolovei3838]

Валерий Степанов это оптимистичный неиссякаемый источник вдохновения!!!❤

[@mrsupportfriend]

Wow! Valeriy you are amazing! Not only are you technically incredible most importantly you play from the heart and put all of your emotions and feelings into your playing. You are definitely one of the best jazz fusion musicians in the world. Bravo and thank you for sharing your amazing musical gifts with all if us. You Shine! Keep Shining! 🌞

От Бога талантище! я певица закончила Гнесинку и училище и академию эстрада, работаю в Италии сейчас! и он для меня бог как и вы! Джаз рок в крови с детства! Обожаю вас !!!

I think Valery is the best keyboardist, the most inspire and créative musicien nowadays. Plus, he is a fantastic multi instrumentist. He is a real genius !! 🎹🎶

[@thomasmaynard8181]

Hello Val , I am an African American musician from New York here in America. Some of my friends are among a who's who in the Jazz / RnB / Gospel world . I've been checking you out for awhile now , you are not only a gifted musician , but you play from the heart . I am listening to and watching your recent release " The Sun " . I couldn't stop crying man ... Beautiful Brother .... Such heart and passion... The concept is right on point : Even though we are going through a global crisis ; the Sun still rises. That there is still beauty to be found in the most simplest of things such as the rising of the sun / the sunset. When you switched over and started playing from your heart on the synth , just looking up ; reaching inward : I wept in harmony with you Brother. Guitar great John McLaughlin said in an interview something I will never forget : " Learn everything that you can , then dismiss it and play from your heart " You are proof that music is indeed a universal language. Big ups from from here in America , keep up the great , quality , and heart felt output . We hear you over here . May you and yours remain safe and well as we all deal with this pandemic. Fellow musicians as well. Peace and Universal Love , ✌ Tom Maynard , New York, NY PS. I didn't realize that there was a second part to the video as it closes , That is THE BOMB ! Boy , you otta stop ! 😏

What a great musician, multi instrumentalist, a super talented genius... Real hyper pocket music, creative and extremely groovy, a bit scary to think about how good he'll be in 20 years ... The fact that he's from Russia, a country that might have been not so much in touch with musicians like Jeff Lorber, George Duke, Russell Ferrante and many others of that kind, shows that there are no borders when it comes to music, you have it or you don't have it, Valeriy for sure got it. Looking forward to more Music from him. Thank you, Valeriy!

[@asb3pe]

Music is the universal language! May God bless all musical souls! Valeriy's music always puts a big smile on my face every time, he is so amazing, a true virtuoso. Thanks for sharing.

[@norwalltino]

Totally agree with you, now Russia has a new genius again among many. This is huge !!!

[@studentsmusic]

you took the words right out of my mouth...

[@legendaryscandals]

YES!!!!!! RUSSELL FARRANTE!!!! And Of Course GEORGE DUKE!!!!!!!!. When I was a young musician just out of college in the 80s there use to be a Musicians Union phone book I got from one of piano teachers named Dorothy Donegan, Charles Brown being my main piano teacher. But I loved The Yellowjackets and I found Russell Farrante's phone number in the book and called him. He was so cool to invite me to hang out at his house and then the studio. I met Jimmy Haslip and became good friends with Rick Lawson and his nephew LaMonte. Anyway its good to see the real music all the way in Russia still jammin'

[@jehl1116]

Благодарю!

[@chrisjames5865]

You know something? Your solos are out of this world and truly something to behold!! Love this song. Great melody, wonderful feel and groove and talking being in the pocket on those drums. It's as if you came out of you mother's belly with a pair of drum sticks in one hand and a keyboard under the arm in your other...lol...Your keyboard sounds/patches you choose are perfection. Also your keyboard collection is to die for. A peak into your mind would have be like walking into the best music school in the world, the best music store on earth and a world class Museum for song writing, music theory and musical instrument control & execution !! All at the same time. That should give you a little bit better understanding how I feel when I watch play. The joy you get when you play is unmistakably one of the most inspiring things I've ever seen. Just like the song from Willie Wonka it's "Pure Imagination"

[@waynewright5023]

Отличная мотивация для освоения исполнения музыки, всегда впечатляет как игра Валерия так и его позитивный музыкальный взгляд, великолепная подача клавишного инструмента!

[@melee3806]

How can this much talent reside in just one person?

[@dlrgroup]

Okay. This is more than incredible. My bad mates brother who is a publisher musician sent me a demo of you what-5-6 year ago. I thought everything about it was fantastic and knew this would grow where you are now. The last “Smooth Jazz recording” I purchased was in 2008 or 2009. It had become boring and sterile with zero life to it. Just another sax solo with zero soul, etc. Valeriy’s music supersedes this by not only creating different structures and soundscapes throughout each piece, it’s the intensity of those very things, dynamics, etc that make listening so enjoyable. Actually, I am so proud of you and your accomplishments. I wish you the very best with this new recording. Never stop, ever.
