About: Igor Presnyakov
Igor Presnyakov was Born in Moscow, Russia.
He studied classical guitar at a nearby academy and eventually graduated both
as a guitarist and a conductor for ensembles. In the late ’70s he used to lead
several hard-rock bands as a lead guitarist, vocalist and arranger. On that
time he also played guitar in a big-band for several years. In 1991 he
relocated to the Netherlands to start his solo career, which has now spanned
over 20 years. Since he moved to Europe he started discovering fingerpicking
and eventually created his unique acoustic guitar-style which is influenced by
various musical genres. Igor is a contemporary guitar player, who arranges and
composes in an orchestral way; combining percussion, bass, harmony and melody
at the same time. His arrangements of popular songs bring a very interesting
approach to the original compositions, giving them a totally new perspective
and possibilities of the acoustic guitar.
Igor also sings in some of his works, where
his artistic insight chooses the right moments for it, but mainly he skillfully
translates the lyrics into a guitar melody, having his instrument sing the
words. His popularity has risen since he first debuted on YouTube in 2007.
Currently the videos uploaded by him have almost 200 million views, in addition
to almost 500,000 subscribers. Igor has performed at several guitar festivals
in Europe and is playing concerts all over the world. In the end of 2012 Igor
recorded his latest album: IGGYFIED which has been released in 2013, it
includes a selection of his finest covers and some originals works. Igor is
officially endorsed by both Takamine guitars and Fender Amplification.
“The main goal for me during the
communication with my audience is to establish love for the music, love for
‘Her Majesty’ the Guitar. I love to play for people. To see the sparkle of joy
in the eyes of the listener is the most rewarding thing for me.”
