Alex Tsisserev & Audio
Ninja History:
From years of classical piano training as a child, to buying his first electric guitar at the age of 12, Mark has grown up playing music most of his life. "The best advice I can give any artist starting out is this… Don’t judge anyone on what they tell you, judge them on what they’ve done. That goes for producers, managers, record labels etc," says the Ninja. Tsisserev
blends classical training with pop sensibilities in his approach
to composition. Having earned a doctoral degree in music education,
Alex has taken on a diverse series of projects which include working
with dance companies such as Ballet British Columbia, California
Dance Theatre, Toronto's National Ballet, The Royal Winnipeg Ballet
and Miami City Ballet, and serving as the author of two books, the
focus of which were music composition. In 2000, Dr. Tsisserev was
inducted into The Canadian Encyclopedia of Music and Dance for his
composition "Pendulum", commissioned by Montreal's Ballet
Jazz. In addition to his current projects, Alex is a university
music instructor in the area of keyboarding, music theory and composition.
