ALES TSURKO
Ales Tsurko - "This collection means a lot to me. I wrote it at a time when the world felt full of beauty and possibilities, before many unexpected changes turned everything upside down. Each track reflects images and moments that moved me. The one that really shows how I felt back then is “The Summer Morning in Minsk.” It was inspired by a night spent with friends, which ended with us watching the sunrise from a rooftop parking lot. It was a simple but profound experience that reminded me how joyful shared moments can be. I miss the simplicity and innocence of those days—a time when I had no idea what hardships were coming. The world has changed so much since then, and like many of you, I’ve faced personal challenges that have changed how I see things. Even in dark times, I believe it’s important to find and cherish the beauty around us. These moments of beauty keep us going and give us hope. I hope that through this album, you might find glimpses of that beauty and maybe remember your own moments of light during tough times."
