First recordings of 3 piano cycles by Nikolai Tcherepnin

[Rainolf]

Pianist Andrea Vivanet, who in 2019 had published a well recieved Szymanowski album, now has recorded Preludes of three Russian masters of different generations. His Russian Album starts with Sergey Taneyev's Prelude and Fugue in G sharp minor and ends with Dmitry Shostakovich's 24 Preludes op. 24. Between you will find the first recordings of three cycles of pieces by Nikolai Tcherepnin:

6 Preludes op. 17 (1900)
5 Morceaux op. 18 (1901)
"Primitifs", 12 Adaptions d'anciennes melodies russes (1926)

Thanks for the notice. Surprising that these are first recordings.

Can't seem to find many recordings of his piano music at all- one CD on Toccata Classics and one disc of midis, I think, by Mr. Thadani which does include no.4 from the op.18 set...
