Lubomyr Melnyk (born December 22, 1948) is a composer and pianist of Ukrainian origin.[1][2][3]

Melnyk is noted for his continuous music, a piano technique based on extremely rapid notes and complex note-series, usually with the sustain pedal held down to generate harmonic overtones and sympathetic resonances.

"This is a completely-completely different piano universe from everything that has existed before", Melnyk explains.[4]
