Over the past five years, pianist Anna Vinnitskaya has made three
Alpha recordings dedicated to Shostakovitch, Brahms et Rachmaninov.
Evgeni Koroliov is a great master of the piano, a great Bach
specialist, whose recordings of Bach are an acclaimed benchmark. His
piano duo with his wife, Ljupka Hadzi-Georgieva, has made its mark over
the past few years in all the major international concert venues. Also a
highly reputed teacher, Koroliov was Anna Vinnitskaya’s professor at
Hamburg.
‘Though I no longer study with him, I still meet and talk with him
several times a week,’ she confides. ‘That helps me further in my
development, not just as a pianist but as a human being…Now that I am
myself a professor at the same university, I try to carry it on, to pass
his experience on to others.’
These three Slavonic pianists, who for some time have been aiming to
record the Bach concertos as a team, decided to invite a German ensemble
that is itself highly expert in Bach interpretation, the Potsdam
Chamber Orchestra; they recorded this double album in a legendary venue
where some of the greatest artists have recorded: the
Jesus-Christus-Kirche in Berlin.
