Author and composer
Sergey Sechin
About the author
Sergey Sechin is a Russian author and composer, the creator of the music and poetry project Osmon ichra. Whispers from the Sufi Universe.
Before turning to music on a larger scale, he spent many years in business, construction and the management of complex projects.
The culture of Uzbekistan holds a special place in his life. His wife, Galina Akramovna Sechina (Yuldasheva), comes from a family rooted in Uzbek traditions. Her father, Akram Babaevich Yuldashev, was from Jizzakh. Over more than three decades of marriage, Uzbek culture, family customs and traditions have become an integral part of the family’s life.
Another important source of his work is a long-standing interest in spiritual and philosophical questions. For about twenty years he has studied Sufi thought, its poetic imagery and its understanding of the inner path.
This interest is personal, exploratory and artistic in nature; the author does not belong to any Sufi order.
Osmon ichra brings together his cultural closeness to Uzbekistan, years of philosophical reflection and the wish to express inner experience through contemporary music.
Today Sergey Sechin is developing the project into an international music and stage production, with a world premiere planned in Uzbekistan.

Osmon ichra. Whispers from the Sufi Universe
The story of this project begins long before the first musical compositions appeared.
For decades Uzbek culture has been present in the author’s life through his family. Family traditions, the memory of loved ones, the language and the cultural heritage of Central Asia formed a personal bond with Uzbekistan that later found expression in his music.
Another important source was a long-standing interest in Sufi philosophy and poetry. Images of the path, breath, silence, light and inner transformation resonated with questions the author had been exploring for many years.
In 2026 these two threads found musical expression in the cycle Osmon ichra.
The twelve compositions of the main album form a sequence of inner states and experiences. The music does not seek to reproduce religious practices or to reconstruct a historical tradition. It is a contemporary artistic engagement with philosophical and poetic imagery, open to personal interpretation.
After the album’s release on 25 May 2026, the project continued to develop. Work began on the author’s essays and on a stage version involving an orchestra, vocalists and light as an independent means of expression.
The planned world premiere in Uzbekistan holds special meaning for the author. It is not only a choice of concert venue, but a way of connecting with a culture that has for many years been part of his own family history.
