About

Mussorgsky, Scriabin and Rachmaninov are undoubtedly the most important Russian composers in the history of piano. From the revolutionary Pictures at an Exhbition of Mussorgsky to the sublime post-romantic and visionary Etudes of Scriabin, through the legendary virtuoso works of Rachmaninov, this album offers a unique journey in the Great Russia of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, led by Stéphane Blet, the most Russian of French pianists, heir to the great tradition of Vladimir Horowitz and Byron Janis.
