He was the king of the piano, and his homeland was the land of poetry: Frédéric Chopin. The young pianist Viacheslav Apostel-Pankratowsky has chosen a fine selection of nocturnes and waltzes, prefacing them like an overture, so to speak, with the famous "Military" Polonaise. The carefully thought-out program takes us on a poetic journey through Chopin's world; tonal relationships create new perspectives and approaches to seemingly well-known works. Apostel-Pankratowsky's fine piano playing traces the intricacies of these incredible miniatures with extreme precision and detail! © Genuin
