Eduard Artemyev

Description

One of the leading composers of electronic music in Russia since the late '60s, Edward Artemiev is mostly known for his soundtracks for Andrei Tarkovsky's experimental science fiction films Solaris, The Mirror, and Stalker. He has also worked on films by Nikita Mikhalkov (Urga, Anna From 6 to 18, Soleil Trompeur), Andre Konchalovsky (Sibiriada, The Odyssey), and Hollywood productions. He has also written orchestral works and pieces fusing electronic and rock idioms. His music was hard to find during the Communist era. Since the early '90s, reissues and collections have multiplied, fostered by Artemiev's successes on the screen.
