NEW ALBUM
“After silence, our ears are fresh and aware to listen music and our minds are full of empty space to receive and collect impressions. Silence prepares our perception to be awake and able to absorb new sound sensations. After silence, music comes with a delicate power that makes us understand how important silence is.”
Oleg presented his latest album "After Silence", assisted by his musical companions: Jeroen van Vliet on piano, viola player Oene van Geel and Wouter Vossen on violin.
Sometimes you hear music you could wear like a warm wool sweater and never take it off.
Britta Maria, Maurits Fondse and Oleg Fateev make that kind of music.

I was deeply touched by your music during the performance 'Huiswaarts'
in the Vestzak Theatre in Dordrecht on September 29th.
It brought me back to my youth for a while.
sincerely,
Wim Jilleba, ( 91 jr)

Fateev is a musical giant from Moldavia, who has been living in the Netherlands for many years, but remained under the radar for far too long. Fortunately he has become a well-known figure on the world music scene, as a member of the Tiltan formation and with the successful duo that he forms with his other half, the Brazilian percussionist Simone Sou.

"Britta Maria, Maurits Fondse and Oleg Fateev, three musicians with outstanding skills ensured an enchanting evening"
Leo van Gelderen, Noord-Hollands Dagblad
"Sometimes a concert makes you intensly happy. Today was somethimes. Tears, laughter, intens enjoy. The full round voice of Britta Maria who seduces and touches your heart, the mischievous and emotional performance of Maurits Fondse and the interaction between the two, complemented with the heavenly performance of Oleg Fateev who, as he really did, makes love his his accordion, made me want to stay for hours, to listen, to sing, to dance and to move to France ... Sigh..., what a graciousness in a copple of hours. Ahhh .. More, more! All Francophiles and bon vivants, you have to go to this show! These three people give you a glimpse of heaven."

Bert Prinsen, about the album presentation
'Quantum' is de koosnaam voor de grootste wetenschappelijke ontdekking aller tijden, zo'n slordige honderd jaar geleden gedaan: kort samengevat als "de wereld zoals we denken dat die bestaat, bestaan niet." Op het kleinste niveau gedragen elementaire deeltjes zich op geen enkele manier zoals wij dat normaal vinden. Het normale en verklaarbare, u en ik incluis, is volledig opgetrokken uit het abnormale en onverklaarbare; hoera!
Wie niet weet wat ik hiermee bedoel: google als de bliksem 'quantum mechanics two slit experiment'. Of ga volgend jaar naar de voorstelling 'En Toen Thuis' van Theatergroep Greppel, (nu al bijna uitverkocht) want praten over 'quantum' doen we allemaal, ook op een podium en op het scherm, maar om het echt v o e l b a a r te maken waar dit over gaat, dat is de Greppels gelukt.
Hoe, dat begrijp ik eigenlijk niet precies (in de beste quantumtraditie). Maar het heeft iets te maken met het samenspel van acteur Lard met het briljante accordeonspel-en zang van Oleg. Je ziet en voelt dingen samenkomen waarvan je helemaal niet begrijpt dat ze op deze manier samen kunnen komen. Het is onbegrijpelijk, meeslepend, grappig, ontroerend en daarin ineens volkomen begrijpelijk. Begrijpt U? Ik ook niet! Hoe dan ook: ga dit zien!
