Bachauer Silver Medalist Vassily Primakov celebrates the Etude, a form elevated from mere technical exercise to concert masterpiece by such composers as Chopin, Liszt, Rachmaninoff, and Schumann.
In recent years, Vassily Primakov has been hailed as a pianist of world-class importance. Gramophone wrote that “Primakov’s empathy with Chopin’s spirit could hardly be more complete,” and the American Record Guide stated: “Since Gilels, how many pianists have the right touch? In Chopin, no one currently playing sounds as good as this! This is a great Chopin pianist.”
