Experience the soulful vibrations of world-acclaimed cellist, composer, and multilingual vocalist Ian Maksin, who sings in over 30 languages.

In this musical journey across time and space, Maksin transports you from the Sahara to the Mongolian steppes, the Balkans to the Caucasus, and the shores of the Pacific and Mediterranean. He uniquely blends diverse world music elements into a seamless fusion, using his cello as the central force. With a loop pedal and electronics, he transforms his instrument into a full string orchestra, creating an extraordinary listening experience. Maksin performs both original instrumental music and songs in 37 languages, including French, Italian, Turkish, Arabic, and more.

Maksin’s innovative style merges genres and traditional music, drawing from his global travels and collaborations with native musicians. He has released several albums inspired by these experiences. Presented by Music And Minds.
