ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Russian-born, Chicago-based cellist, composer, and multilingual vocalist Ian Maksin has gathered a large global ever-growing audience and offers a distinct musical experience bringing together different genres and cultures from all over the world. He performs nearly 200 concerts annually on five continents. He sings in nearly 20 languages: Russian, Ukrainian, English, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Yiddish, Ladino (language of the Sephardic Jews of Spain), Turkish, Kurdish, Armenian, Arabic, Latvian, Lithuanian, Belarusian, and Macedonian. Equally fluent in jazz, classical, and world music—using his cello as a main unifying element—Maksin has created his own style combining these genres in his original music filled with many elements: Balkan rhythm, West African blues, rumba, flamenco, music of Tuvan and Mongolian shamans, and more. Maksin describes his artistic goals as “bringing people together through music despite their religious, political, cultural differences and languages barriers.” (Photo by: Cuanticapictures)
