PROJECTS

MAREŠOVÁ YASINSKI RAZAM

Worldmusic with strong Slavic roots in which musicians from Czechia, Belarus and Russia get together.
Originally we performed as a trio of Marešová Yasinski Vašíček, having released a successful album "Kéž bouře by přišla" (If a storm would come) in 2016. Later we began working with Russian violinist Ilia Chernoklinov and drummer Radek Doležal. Now we've started using the name RAZAM, which in Belarusian means together. Vigor, authencity and excellent sound of Marešová Yasinski RAZAM live concerts are always great musical experience for the audience.

Here is our page on Facebook.

   RADKA FIŠAROVÁ

With the brilliant Czech singer and songwriter Radka Fišarová we perform French shanson music and her own compositions. I'm very glad to be involved in her project together with other great musicians. In 2015 we released the album "Rendez-vous" together with Jazz4 Vladimíra Strnada.

Tichý/Doležal/Yasinski

Aliaksandr Yasinski, Petr Tichý and Radek Doležal have been meeting each other in various musical projects for many years. They started creating together as a trio in July 2023.

The musicians had their premiere concert at Prague's Jazz Dock on the 13th of January 2024.

The repertoire is mainly original. Variety of musical styles (jazz, fusion, world music, rock), attention to details and freshness of the sound.

Unique music performed by three top musicians. The combination of the instruments will charm listeners with vigorous energy and virtuosity. The trio brings joy from creation of music.

FRATREZ

Fratrez is the project of Belarusian musicians (voice, guitar, violin, flute, cello, percussion, accordion, trombone) lead by singer Siarzhuk Douhushau. The main creating process is based on common improvisation, so each musician can shape the music and has an equal role. Perhaps the best description of style can be "sacral minimalism". Enjoy and buy our last album here.

We've published a couple of singles and EPs on the Internet and 2 LP CDs "Zalaty" (January 2013) and "Adpusci" (October 2013) with the label Vigma in Minsk, Belarus.

THE UNLIMITED TRIO

Two good friends of mine - guitarist Nikita Krein and violist Ilia Chernoklinov and me founded this band in Minsk back in 2008. Now we all live and work in Prague, Czech Republic. Our aim is not to limit ourselves in any particular style or genre, but try reach and express different moods, thoughts and emotions - in our music you can hear elements of classical, folklore, rock, jazz, ambient and contemporary music. We published our first CD on Great Winds Records (Metz, France). Our second album "Falling into the light" was recorded and mastered at my home studio in Prague in 2016.
