The Night of the Triffids - 1st part
"Hi Pavel, I happen to know the story and have even seen the movie. This fits in quite well with the dark and scary tone of the book (which I recommend, but can't recommend the movie). The electronic instrumentation fits in nicely with the piano…"

I was born in Prague, Czech Republic. I began to study the piano when I was 8 years old and the cello at the age of 10. After graduating from the Electro-Technical Secondary School I was employed in the sound department of Czech TV in Prague.
In 1972 I passed the entrance examinations for university studies at the Academy of Performing Arts (HAMU - Music Faculty), where I studied composition, piano and music pedagogy.
Within the framework of the composition class I was chosen to attend the Summer Courses in Siena - Italy (prof. F. Donatoni). After completing my graduate composition for AMU (Concert for Piano and Orchestra), I was granted a post-gradual scholarship (for two years) at the State Conservatory in Moscow under prof. N. Sidelnikov.
Now I am employed as a pedagogue in the Department of Music and Sound at the Academy of Performing Arts in Prague - Film and TV Faculty (FAMU) and Jazz Conservatory (KJJ) too.

- Hi, Pavel! I just say congratulation but two things more: I was in Prague in 2003 beautiful city and one of my favorite work (near of "Carmina Burana",Orff and few other) is "Ruskie skazky" by N. Sedelnikov. I have score and audio. Best composer but unknown in In a large group of musicians. One of my student at composition (I am from Rep. of Moldova, Kishinau) now studying in State Conservatory in Moscow(1-st year) and I send him this work. How was Sedelnikov in the cours?
Rspectfully, Vlad
