Anatoliy Olshanskiy is an extraordinary musician and indeed a visionary. With the help and support of his teacher and personal friend, Vladimir Ustinov, he created GRAN, the new acoustic instrument with a vast sonorous palette.
This hybrid instrument changed his life completely—it made him cross the ocean and back, introduced him to Sir Paul McCartney and incredibly gifted luthiers worldwide, brought him together with a princess, and settled him in Vienna. Please see
