Dmitriy Danilov graduated from the N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov Saint-Petersburg Conservatory in 2004, where he majored in choral conducting. He is a versatile and talented musician, who successfully conducts two amateur choirs, performs as a pianist, and plays romances (including his own musical compositions).
D. Danilov has been composing since early childhood. However, his first noteworthy compositions were written during his student years. In many respects, this creative period came about thanks to Dmitriy’s enthusiasm for the Silver Age of Russian poetry. Romances appeared first, followed by choral music.
Today D. Danilov’s major works consist of the following: “Twilight Poem”, based on A. Block’s poems and composed for choir, soloists, violin and piano (2004), composition for five a cappella choirs, based on A. Vertinskiy’s poems (2006), “Divine Liturgy” for an a cappella choir (2010), choral compositions, based on poems by L. Mey, I. Severyanin and N. Gumilyov, choir arrangements of Russian and Gypsy folk songs, romances, based on the poems by A. Block, I. Bunin, I. Severyanin, K. Balmont, N. Gumilyov and V. Sorokin, and several piano compositions.
He caught his first big success, when he received 3rd prize at the International Composers’ Competition “Romanos the Melodist”, which took place in Saint-Petersburg (spring 2012). He was nominated in the category of “Large-scale musical composition on a sacred subject for the choir” for his “Divine Liturgy”. This composition was performed by the choir of the Mikhaylovsky Theatre, conducted by V. Stolpovskih (as a part of the Great Lenten concerts), which took place in the Large Hall of the Saint-Petersburg Philharmonia.
D. Danilov’s first collection of choir music contains five pieces taken from his “Twilight Poem”, composed for an a cappella choir and Two a cappella choirs, based on N. Gumilyov’s verses.

Дмитрий Данилов родился в 1980 году в Ленинграде. В 2004 году окончил Санкт-Петербургскую государственную консерваторию им. Н. А. Римского-Корсакова по специальности "Хоровое дирижирование". Разносторонне одаренный музыкант с успехом руководит двумя любительскими хоровыми коллективами, выступает как пианист и исполнитель романсов (в том числе собственного сочинения).
Композицией Д. Данилов занимается с детства. Первые заслуживающие внимания сочинения были написаны им уже в студенческие годы — во многом благодаря увлечению Дмитрия поэзией Серебряного века. Сначала появились романсы, а затем и хоровая музыка.
Основные сочинения Данилова на сегодняшний день — "Поэма сумерек" на стихи А. Блока для хора, солистов, скрипки и фортепиано (2004), Пять хоров a cappella на стихи А. Вертинского (2006), "Божественная литургия" для хора a cappella (2010); фантазия "Ветер странствий" (по мотивам поэзии Н. Гумилёва) для скрипки, виолончели и фортепиано (2011), хоры на стихи Л. Мея, И. Северянина, Н. Гумилёва, хоровые обработки русских и цыганских народных песен, романсы на стихи А. Блока, И. Бунина, И. Северянина, К. Бальмонта, Н. Гумилёва, В. Сорокина, пьесы для фортепиано.
Первый большой успех пришел к Д. Данилову, когда он получил III премию на I Международном конкурсе композиторов "Роман Сладкопевец", проходившем в Санкт-Петербурге весной 2012 года, в номинации "Духовное хоровое сочинение крупной формы" (на конкурс была представлена вышеупомянутая "Божественная литургия"). Произведение было исполнено хором Михайловского театра под управлением В. В. Столпов-ских в рамках "Великопостных концертов" в Большом зале Санкт-Петербургской филармонии.
Настоящее издание — первый сборник хоровых сочинений Дмитрия Данилова. В него вошли ранние работы композитора — пять фрагментов из "Поэмы сумерек" для исполнения хором a cappella и два хора a cappella на стихи Н. Гумилёва.
