What Our Customers Are Saying

I am a Steinway and Sons artist, have sold millions of recordings and had over 30 White House performances. Requests were made at a White House party for some Stevie Wonder tunes so I immediately pulled out my iPad, summoned Musicnotes and bought sheet music for "Overjoyed" and "Ribbon in the Sky". Your company has made me look great in so many performances. Thank you for this fabulous gift musicnotes is to performers.

As a piano bar performer I must try to play all requests. I need the sheet music now, today, while it is hot and can earn me tips.

With Musicnotes I can order it, pay for it, and have it in minutes. I can use the song that night & make a better living.

- No one is a match for me. I'm the only one, the only one! I could ride all night long. It was as if the devil was possessing me, the musicians got tired earlier than I did.

It was her dance - and it seemed to her that she was dancing it without any hints, even if some men see a hint in every girl.

— What are you doing? - I'm pretending to look at your legs, but in fact I'm checking if you can dance!

How could you live so long and still not understand this? Such self-obsession is a waste of a life that could be devoted to experiencing difficulties, admiring nature, singing kindness and friendship, and dancing!

Dance is a poem, every movement in it is a word.

I am a slave to rhythm. I am like a palette. I dance the way I feel at this moment. If you start thinking, then that's it, you are a corpse. Speaking is not about the mind, it's about feelings.

Dance is just a clumsy substitute for sex.

At fifteen dancing is a pleasure, at twenty it is an excuse, at forty it is a burden.

Only Georg dances among us, I never dance, but I sit in the corner and fight with those who cannot dance

Ballet is not only technique. The best parties dance with the soul…

The world in which we live is the creator's dance. Dancers come and go in the blink of an eye, but the dance lives on. I keep on dancing... and dancing... and dancing, because there is only... dancing.

Someone taps their foot, someone snaps their fingers, and someone sways back and forth. I just took yes and began to do it all at once.

Dance is your pulse, your heartbeat, your breath. This is the rhythm of your life. It is an expression in time and movement, in happiness, joy, sadness and envy.

If the ladies talked less, the partners would hear the music better.

It is not necessary to talk to a person about literature, sometimes it is enough just to dance with him.

Girl, are you dancing? -Yes! -I thought you were being electrocuted!

Dance until you are told “Well, you will still dance.”

I don't try to dance better than everyone else. I try to dance better than myself.

Dance is the mother of all arts. Music and poetry exist in time, painting and architecture exist in space. But dance lives simultaneously in time and space. Creator and creation… merge into one!

— Young ladies, what do you think is the main thing in dancing? - Soul?!

Sword fighting is like dancing. And in dances, and in a duel, some movements must be followed by others, otherwise you will go astray. But if, while dancing, you can have fun chatting with your partner and have time to look around, here you silently follow his sword, forgetting about the world around you.

I was just... Just listening to music in the store, just dancing in the passages and all that. She told me: “Be good! Take it easy!". And I told her: “I can’t stop! I must dance! Must!"

The meaning of life is not to wait for the storm to end, but to learn to dance in the rain.

There are shortcuts to happiness, and dance is one of them.

When you walk, don't walk mechanically, don't go on watching it - be it. When you dance, don't do it technically; technique is irrelevant. You can dance technically correctly but miss out on the joy of dancing. Dissolve yourself in the dance, become the dance, forget about the dancer.

Curiously, many of these guys don't even realize that this has a history. Behind every movement there is a shadow, every step they take falls on a great trail.

Dancing is joy and pleasure. If not, it's exercise.

Well, at last the neighbors fell asleep, now they can dance...

It's better to dance at a disco than in a queue for the toilet.

Tango is a bed where you are not ashamed to bare your soul.

… It seemed that they physically began to feel it — with their skin, soul, sixth sense… The movements of those present suddenly began to synchronize, enter into resonance with each other. Until now, each of them lived their own energy, their own life. And it was visible. But now, in this moment, their energies merged together. One person fed another, each each. Their energy, overflowing and intensifying, became common.

You shouldn't invite an Abkhazian woman to dance, because after this wedding yours can start right away.

In your light I learned to love. In your beauty - to write poetry. You dance in my heart where no one can find you.

When you dance, it is impossible to die, and you feel like God.

Music and dancing... Music and dancing is all that a person needs.

Someone stamps his foot, someone snaps his fingers, and someone sways back and forth. I just took yes and began to do it all at once.

Dance is the poetry of feet.

Didn't Nietzsche say he wouldn't believe in a god who couldn't dance? Me too.

Pagan legends say that the gods danced to create the world. I fly, and all of them fly with me, dancing the dance of creation and death of the universe; step forward - the world is growing, step back - the sky is cracking.

- He dances well enough, but is unable to replace you, Lord M. - You flatter me, ma'am, and, like all men, I am susceptible to flattery.

- I want to dance! Nata suddenly reported capriciously, looking at Methodius. “Dance at General Pitt?” Julitta was surprised. “In General Pitt, you can only throw cutlets and throw forks.

Life is not a dance - you can't go back.

Dancing is the beginning of flirting and love relationships.

The dance of death, where only the survivor will hear the applause...

In marriage, the man provides the livelihood for the woman, and the woman takes care of domestic pleasures for men. His job is to get it, her job is to smile. In dances, duties are distributed in the opposite way. He should please, please. She takes care of the fan and the lavender water.

For example, the notorious naked dances. In places with a temperate climate, it is extremely rare to get such nights when it would occur to someone to strip naked and dance something there. Not to mention the pebbles underfoot, thistles and all kinds of thorns.

The body never lies. This is a barometer showing the weather in the shower.

Are you having fun? - Something like that! - Wonderful. Your dancing style closely resembles that of Shepard. — A blow below the belt!..

Dance beautifully. Beauty is a destructive force. Without beauty, power is nothing.

A bizarre mixture of jazz, indie-pop and R&B made IOWA super popular. And her vocalist Ekaterina Ivanchikova is a real star.

IOWA Group: Leonid Tereshchenko, Vasily Bulanov and Ekaterina Ivanchikova

- Katya, what motto do you go through life with?

- My credo: "It's not a pity - add it, it's not enough - take it." If people lived according to this principle, there would be peace and friendship on earth.

- I think for many people your song "Smile" could also become a motto, especially for those prone to depression. You almost always smile too. Is it innate for you?

Probably yes. I am positive and optimistic. For as long as I can remember, I have always felt that the glass was more half full than empty.

- At the presentation of the video "Bad to dance", the IOWA group called on everyone present to start dancing as best they can - and everything was filmed on video. Agree, the message of this song is rather strange. Did you yourself think that dancing badly is cool?

- We created this song as a joke. For people who know how to laugh at themselves. And there were so many of them! After all, it is not so much the dance that is important, but the emotions that you give, splash out. And this can be done only when liberated, free from the framework. Sometimes you reveal yourself in some ridiculous movements, but they contain individuality, zest. And the person becomes interesting and even beautiful - in his own way. I want to look at him. We are often sent videos where people just dance, sometimes ridiculous, funny ... But so cool! A professional dancer will never be able to do that.

- But at the same time, Denis Stulnikov choreographed for you. He worked with Dorn, and with Lorak, and with many other stars. It turns out that you invited a cool choreographer to teach you how to dance badly?

– If you know how to rejoice, you know how to live. I want everyone to have a holiday every day

– I really enjoyed working with Denis! We did not discuss for a long time, we just asked him to stage such dances. He said: “Forget about the movements, dance as your body tells you to. As soon as you start thinking about movements, you lose your core, your energy.” We did dirty dancing for two days and then we started filming.

– Your mother worked as a kindergarten teacher, where she also took you. I heard you consider her your first mentor.

– Yes, she taught me to draw, dance and sing. All my basic skills come from her. She also sings and dances very well. Our kindergarten was with a sports bias. We were a strong team, often taking first place in competitions. And when I was seven years old, our group participated in the district competition. I remember I sang the song "Daddy Can" - it was my first appearance on stage.

- Then there was a music school. In one of the interviews, you say that you somehow did not work out with the piano. Yes, and solfeggio Katya Ivanchikova skipped. Nobody scolded you? Didn't force you to do it?

– No one has ever scolded or forced me. And no one yelled at me. Perhaps because I was charming. And, interestingly, I met a guy who, too, no one ever scolded at a music school. I mean my husband. They told him: you are so charming, well-mannered, delicate ... Well, you didn’t learn it - and okay! In this sense, my husband and I have a very similar childhood. Although he knew solfeggio very well, he pulled me up.

- Katya, I know that after the 9th grade you wanted to enter some university that teaches academic vocals. Why didn't it work out?

- I had an excellent teacher of academic vocals, outwardly similar to Dmitry Hvorostovsky. By a terrible irony of fate, he died shortly before the great singer left. For me it was a personal tragedy. Someday I will put a monument to the teacher - in the form of a treble clef ... The mentor sometimes shouted at the students, but never at me. What I learned from him was a godsend.

– Please tell us about Ilya Oleinikov's musical The Prophet. How did you get into this project?

- There was a big casting for him. My girlfriend told me: “Tomorrow is the last day of the casting, come at 9 in the morning.” And I came - at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Was careless! She came, and the selection ended long ago, six lucky ones are sitting. I sit down with them, I have a fox on my shoulders (later on the project they called me a fox). So, that means I’m sitting arrogantly, and the director of the project, Janusz Yuzefovich, comes in: “And you, girl, what are you doing here?” I don't remember what I said to him. He gave me some notes on the piano, ran over the keys. I sang, he liked it. "Can you come tomorrow?" – asked. I answer: "I can." And the next day, everything began to spin, preparations began for six months. I learned a lot then.

– Was this school difficult for you or was everything easy?

– Both difficult and easy. We were given a score, I was so worried that I learned it instantly. Fear mobilizes forces. I immediately sang from the sheet. Because I understood: there are no other options, there is no time. And she sang clearly, as if according to the notes, or rather, exactly according to the notes. It was a good school. I completely changed, I felt a professional grip. And, of course, thanks to everyone who worked with us. There were great teachers there. And the set is cool - very interesting, open people.

- Zemfira was your idol.

– She was a mystery… It was she who showed what music is. And I believed her...

- I heard a story: you had tickets to her concert, but you didn't go...

- I was afraid. It was a period when I absorbed her so much that I began to sing like her. Articles appeared in the press that another Zemfira lives - Belarusian. And then I realized: this has to end. It's time to choose your path. Therefore, my advice to beginners: you need to look for yourself, your style, your face, your chip.

- There are many versions about the origin of the name of the group IOWA. There are references both to the US state and to the album of the metal band Slipknot that you like. And some fans even believe that this is your last name. Aren't you offended that you are often called Katya IOWA?

- Not at all. In general, I like to associate myself with the Indians - the indigenous people of America. Whatever it was, they remained a symbol of freedom. So we, musicians, want to be free, to travel around cities and towns, to give our art. "We bring laughter and joy to people."

– Who came up with this feather theme? This is absolutely your image, hitting the top ten. What's your idea?

- Yes. Now we have left it a little, although I want to return to it again.

With mother Nina Vasilievna

- Nevertheless, this is a complete association with you. Even Nastya Stotskaya, when she performed in the One to One program, came out in this Indian dress.

– Yes, it was cool! I also liked her performance. It's very flattering when they parody you, trying to find a similarity.

– Tell me, was there a difficult period in the band's creative biography? Have you ever worked as street musicians?

- I remember (it was a long time ago) when we first arrived in St. Petersburg, our money was immediately stolen from us. Someone had the currency, the money changer immediately jumped up, and we bought rubles ... Peter tested us for strength more than once. But one day he presented a gift: the guys from the SKA hockey club came up to us and offered to write an anthem for him. The song is simple: “Time does not wait! Victory is near! Forward, forward, St. Petersburg SKA!” And with this anthem they took two Gagarin Cups. We performed at the Ice Palace twice. Colored smoke, fireworks, people rejoice, the team passes the cup from hand to hand - and all under our hit! We were in seventh heaven.

– Probably, you didn't even dream about it…

– I couldn't even dream of a lot of things, but it came true. So I didn’t have a duet with Tankian at all (Serj Tankian is an American musician of Armenian origin, frontman of the System Of A Down team. - Approx. "ZN").

- For those who don't know. It's the soundtrack to a blockbuster.

- Yes, I mean "The Legend of Kolovrat". I'm proud of this work, awesome movie. We still correspond with the actors.

– Were you offered to compose the music for the film?
