In the past ten years Vladimir Tarasov collaborated much with the symphony, chamber music and jazz orchestras of. Lithuania, Europe and the United States. His creative quests as of a composer and a musician are mostly in the domain of modern avant-garde music, though he often resorts to classical music, writes for the cinema and musical theatre. Installation as a type of contemporary art constitutes a peculiar part of his oeuvre where he works in collaboration with Ilya Kabakov a leading theorist engaged in the art of installation. "Christmas Wreath" and "Bells for St. Casimir of Vilnius" are the most famous light installations of Vladimir Tarasov. The "Sound Games" exhibition in the Marble Palace presents seven installations by the musician: "Nocturne for Paper", "Music of Hosts" "Drums of Tibet", "Untitled" or "Talking to oneself", "New York - New York", "Concert for Flies", "Music of Water".
