A young boy ? perhaps a future star of the Russian pianism ? plays works by various composers and one of his own compositions. He is a real infant prodigy. He promises to become a world class master of music and even now he is a brilliant virtuoso. Tikhon Khrennikov in Moskovsky Komsomolets |

Anthology of Piano Music by Russian and Soviet Composers
Part 1 Disc 4: 1917-1991
Firma Melodiya and the Tikhon Khrennikov Charitable Foundation present the joint project - Anthology of Piano Music by Russian and Soviet Composers. The project is conceived as a series of 30 discs featuring recordings of not only recognized masterpieces of Russian and Soviet music, but also as a revival of unjustly forgotten compositions. The Anthology is an attempt to collect together the music constituting the pride of Russian culture. The series will include works by such composers as Nikolai Myaskovsky, Aram Khachaturian, Dmitri Shostakovich, Andrei Eshpai, Tikhon Khrennikov, Nikolai Roslavets, Vissarion Shebalin, Mieczyslaw Weinberg, Rodion Shchedrin, Alexander Alexandrov, Arno Babajanian, Galina Ustvolskaya, Dmitri Kabalevsky, Konstantin Makarov-Rakitin and many others. A significant part of the compositions will be recorded for the first time. This series is in the first instance an outlook from the 21st century so important for a new generation of musicians, while it revisits the previous two centuries. The Anthology features some of the young virtuosos of piano music such as Andrei Korobeynikov, Nikita Mdoyants, Luka Okrostsvaridze, Asiya Korepanova, Yuri Favorin, Ekaterina Mechetina and others. They not just performed but took part in compiling the series searching in the music archives for the compositions which, in their opinion, deserved a way back to their listeners. The series will be split in 4 sections: • 1917-1991 (music of the Soviet period) • 1991-2010 (contemporary music) • Russian piano music (before 1917) • Music of expatriate Russian composers |

Recorded in Maly Hall of the Moscow Conservatoire 8.01.1960 and 13.05.1960
Vladimir Sofronitsky, piano
Vladimir Sofronitsky ranks on a par with Rubinstein and Rachmaninov. He was admired by Prokofiev and Shostakovich. Horovitz recognized hios unique talent and Glazunov named him "one of the outstanding Russian pianists".
This CD presents pieces by Alexander Scryabin of whom Sofronitsky, not long before he died, said: "From my young days through my whole life and to the end I will take with me with great joy my love to him. Life, light, struggle, will. This is where the greatness of Scryabin lies." Sofronytsky's interpretations were very close to the author's himself, not by its technique but by spirit and message.
I.Martina
I think that Sofronitsky is the closest to Chopin: forceful, bright, truthful, soulful, elegiac but also elegant - these are qualities common to all Art. However, both in Chopin and Sofronitsky they are stressed to an extreme, with their life on the line, seriously, in tears flowing on their face, hands, life or ascetically swallowed - there is no room for the tears, everything is going to disappear now - faster, faster!! - or everything is shining in the purity of the spiritual look facing the sunny Source of Truth. Sofronitsky was exactly a pure romantic; he is all yearning to the infinite and totally indifferent to the sea of life and is completely helpless in such.
