In Popov Maxim's creativity the most various musical forms are harmoniously united. Bright music of Russian folklore on original themes, power peculiar to a jazz-rock and at the same time ballade intonations with citations from classics. Priorities of the musician - author's compositions and modern perusal of jazz standards. The accessory to a mainstream at it is based, first of all, on not one-dimensional interpretation of the term. Maxim searches for possibilities for its application in wider polystyle a range. Its music mentions and will amortizes in itself variety of lines from cultural layers. In it, at times, against motor-ostinato lines of the left hand fancifully intertwine elements of fank and national colour of recitatives kazakh inks, hymn of gospels and genre sketches. Spontaneity, heterogeneity, a solicitous attitude to a sound and sterile thinking in improvisations. Thus you will not be mistaken, if Maxim's musical handwriting defines in the most subjective image because this musician is many-sided, is able to adapt in many styles and loves quality in art, as that. Music of the ural pianist is unostentatious, but as any original invites to understanding of the essence.
