De Russische pianist en componist Daniil Trifonov (1991) wordt nu al gezien als een muzikale grootmeester. Hij begint op zijn vijfde piano te spelen en weet op jonge leeftijd al prestigieuze prijzen te winnen, zoals de Tchaikovsky, Chopin en Rubenstein Competitie. Dit album wijdt Daniil Trifonov aan Franz Liszt, die de rol van de piano in de muziek fundamenteel heeft veranderd. Het programma bevat de Concert Etudes die Liszt tussen 1849 en 1863 schreef. Deze weinig gespeelde, voor de pianist zeer uitdagende werken weet Daniil Trifonov in vijf dagen op te nemen. Het resultaat is een sublieme registratie die aantoont dat Trifonov Liszt trefzeker interpreteert en zowel liefhebbers als nieuwe luisteraars weet te raken.

Daniil Trifonov (piano)
Transcendental is the new solo release by Piano Sensation Daniil Trifonov.
His press reviews are consistently out of this world and The Times quote says it all: He is the finest young pianist of our age.
After his successful "Rachmaninov Variations" last year, he has now created another statement to define his extraordinary and growing legacy. It is dedicated to the greatest pianist of his own century: Franz Liszt.
The repertoire is Liszt’s Complete Concert Etudes. These Etudes remain amongst the most challenging piano pieces ever composed – and are rarely recorded or performed. This is the first time that the Complete Liszt Etudes have been recorded as a whole for DG. And Daniil Trifonov is one of the few pianists to have recorded them all in one go – in an unbelievable five days.
Beyond his phenomenal technique, Daniil Trifonov is a distinctly Russian artist: an intense, soulful musician in the great Russian tradition whose presentation and repertoire set him apart from all other young piano stars of today.
