About

Roman Rabinovich fuses art and music on his debut Ballets Russes-inspired recording. An accomplished artist, Rabinovich regularly displays his iPad-created sketches alongside concert performances, and has created original artwork for this new release

The disc features composer-arrangements for solo piano: Stravinsky’s Three movements from Petrushka and Prokofiev’s Ten Pieces from Romeo & Juliet Op.75. Rabinovich has also transcribed Ravel’s Daphnis and Chloe to complete the disc

Roman Rabinovich won the top prize at the 2008 Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition. At the age of 10 he made his debut with the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra under Zubin Mehta, and he has performed at venues including the Leipzig Gerwandhaus, Wigmore Hall, Metropolitan Museum NYC and Paris’ Salle Cortot.

Mr Rabinovich’s impressive arrangement of Daphnis and Chloe was wonderful, and one especially couldn’t help but notice the exotic beauty of the second movement. The last movements were exhilarating, especially the fiendishly difficult concluding Danse generale.” - Donald Isler (Classicalmusicguide.com)
