A Portrait Of Russian Pianist Nikolai Lugansky A Portrait of Russian pianist nikolai lugansky Poet and Virtuoso.From Klassik Heute, 2001 Written by Peter Schlüer Translated http://lugansky.homestead.com/files/Klassik_Heute.htm
Extractions: Edited by Valour Two years ago, in a supremely transparent interpretation of Chopin's Etudes , Nikolai Lugansky offered impressive evidence of his ability to present virtuoso pieces with undemonstrative ease, yet full of poetic meaning. Even before his victory in the 10th International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow, he was already earning his place among the elite of the younger generation of pianists with impressive recordings of Rachmaninoff and successful debuts in Europe, South America and the Far East. And now a new recording of works by Chopin has been issued, his fourth with the French label Erato. However, it is not only Chopin and Rachmaninoff that the young Russian is able to play with sensitive brilliance: he has already approached works by the German Romantics with astonishing sensitivity, as his reading of Robert Schumann's Symphonic Etudes , in particular, demonstrates. The soft delicacy with which he plays the final posthumous variation, in which shimmering harmonies descend from high F with angelic tenderness, bears witness to his understanding of a psychological dimension which Germans and non-Germans both call, for want of a really accurate translation, "

Extractions: A: We gave some concerts of chamber music together. She played a great deal of Bach. So I spent my sixteenth year learning a very human Bach, not just intelligent or patient. Romantic, if you will. If I play Bach these days, I cannot put other composers into the same programme. He completed an epoch. There is a greater distance between him and Haydn than between Haydn and Schumann.

Extractions: Nikolai Lugansky was born in Moscow in 1972 to research scientists, and began to play the piano at the age of five. At the age of sixteen, this extremely gifted young Russian pianist won a silver medal at the 8th International Bach Competition in Leipzig, and First Prize in Tiblisi at a competition for young artists. Two years later, he won Second Prize at the second Rachmaninoff Competition in Moscow at the age of eighteen, and at the age of twenty, was recognized as the best pianist at the International Summer Academy "Mozarteum" in Salzburg. In 1994 at the age of twenty-two he won the Tenth International Tchaikovsky Competition. In his debut American season last year, Russian pianist Nikolai Lugansky performed with the San Francisco Symphony and John Nelson (Tchaikovsky No. 2), Sam Wong and the Houston Symphony (Rachmaninoff No. 3), Raymond Leppard and the Indianapolis Symphony (Tchaikovsky No. 2) and with Valery Gergiev and the Kirov Orchestra in three performances at the Hollywood Bowl (Tchaikovsky No. 1).

Extractions: One of the most respected and acclaimed flutists performing today, Carol Wincenc has appeared as soloist with major orchestras worldwide and has premiered works written for her by numerous prominent composers. Ms. Wincenc is equally interested in developing new solo and chamber repertoire for the flute. In a Valentine’s Day recital in New York’s Merkin Concert Hall in 1998, she premiered ten short "valentines" written for her by Gorecki, Schickele, Michael Torke and others. In May 1997, she joined flutists Linda Chesis and Laura Gilbert for a recital that featured premieres of works for multiple flutes. In great demand as a chamber musician, Ms. Wincenc has collaborated with the Guarneri, Emerson, Tokyo and Cleveland String Quartets, and performed with sopranos Jessye Norman and Elly Ameling, pianist Emanuel Ax, and cellist Yo-Yo Ma. As a result of her fascination with the flute and its family of instruments, Ms. Wincenc created and directed a series of International Flute Festivals at the Ordway Theatre in St. Paul. The overwhelming success of these festivals, which featured such diverse artists as Jean-Pierre Rampal, Herbie Mann and American Indian flutist R. Carlos Nakai, led to a sold-out U.S. tour which included performances in New York and San Francisco.

Extractions: (65:37) full-price by Jonathan Yungkans Among Frederic Chopin's most treacherous compositions for pianists, his 24 Etudes of Op. 10 and Op. 25 demand a range of technique and expression that has foundered many a challenger. Usually those who manage the more athletic pieces come up short in poetry in the quieter ones, while the fingers of those adept at evoking the tints and colors in these tone poems have sounded awkward when the pace quickened. Good versions of these works are not scarce, but great ones are exceedingly rare. Artur Rubinstein never recorded the set, though he did record the

Extractions: Nikolai Lugansky: Chopin Etudes "I'm not going to the theatre just to hear a pianist play exercises", people would say in Paris in the 1830's on seeing notices for a concert programme which included studies. Nevertheless, during the course of the following decade, things changed with the almost simultaneous appearance of a "Study in 12 Exercises" by the young Liszt and the "24 Studies" by Moscheles where pieces of purely mechanical nature were mingled with true piano pieces from which musical interest and poetic feeling were not excluded. They were to serve as a model for Chopin's own Etudes. This evolution was due in part to the publication in 1820 of Paganini's 24 Caprices for violin, a series of concert pieces whose considerable virtuosity was to have a marked influence upon the development of piano technique. Schumann published transcriptions of six of the Caprices in 1832; he called them "Studies" and accompanied them with preparatory exercises, just as Alfred Cortot was later to do in his famous "Working Edition" of Chopin's Etudes. From then on, a distinction was made between an exercise and a study, and it led to Chopin publishing his "12 Etudes op. 10", a collection dedicated to Liszt, the idea for which had come to him when he was working on his two concertos; his aim was to lay down for posterity the elements of his own technique and keyboard innovations, all the more so since he was by then well aware of the fragility of his physical and emotional make-up, factors which led him to put an end to his career as a concert artist and to devote his time to teaching and composition.
