Brahms / Tanin - Piano Works [CD]

He is already being compared to Daniil Trifonov: The young Siberian pianist Sergey Tanin (*1995) is one of the up-and-coming and most promising pianists of his generation. Now he presents his debut album on PROSPERO. With works by Brahms, Schubert/Liszt and Prokofieff, he can impressively demonstrate both a mature interpretational depth as well as musicality and virtuosity. Born in 1995 in Siberia/Yakutia, Sergey Tanin started to play the piano at the age of 5. At 11, he already performed with the Moscow Symphony Orchestra in the Great Hall of the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow. After his graduation in 2019 from Moscow Conservatory (class of prof. Irina Plotnikova), Sergey continued to study at Basel Musik Academie with Claudio Martinez-Mehner. He is holder of the Swiss Government Excellence Scholarship and in 2020, the Swiss Television (SRF) released a documentary about Sergey - "The Pianist Who Came In From the Cold".
