"The power of music changes us beyond recognition and makes us unearthly beautiful inside." True to his words, popular Bulgarian pop artist Vladimir Ampov aka Grafa presents his fans with a new arrangement of a beautiful song he performed years ago. It is called "Sin", although the text reads: "Oh, my white sleep, there is no sin in silence..." 

Author of the music and arrangement is Vladimir Ampov as he also plays the part on the piano. Among the professionals who worked on the song, we also see the name of Rumen Boyadzhiev Jr. in his capacity as an orchestrator, as well as DropDown Community - a wonderful chamber orchestra composed of young musicians. 

This is what one of our most talented pop singers wrote under the official video to the song: “When I compose, I imagine pictures, worlds, images... I wanted to make "Sin" entirely with live instruments. So I went to a big studio to record the piano and playing the song gave me soulful delight and satisfaction. I also made the arrangement for the string orchestra with more depth and dynamics in the melodic lines. The lyrics are of my father Kiril Ampov. To me, this is one of his most beautiful texts!”
