Music

In his music Artyomov combines an eclecticism with experiment. At first his compositions were neoclassical in style. Later he moved to the folkloristic style, tried twelve-tone technique, free-rhythmic style, polytonality and minimalism. Artyomov's compositions show his interest in the archaic ("Invocations", "Totem") and Christian motifs ("Requiem", "Ave, Maria") as well as Eastern meditation ("Awakening", "A Symphony of Elegies", "Moonlight Dreams").
