Description:
Alessio Backs’ Russian Program Mussorgsky’s *Pictures at an Exhibition* Finally Makes Its Debut! Alessio Bax, the “Italian Prince” who triumphed at the 3rd Hamamatsu International Piano Competition in 1997 and the Leeds International Piano Competition in 2000, continues to make his mark on the world stage. Having already earned high praise for his “Rachmaninoff” album (SIGCD264), Alessio Bax’s highly anticipated new Russian album features Scriabin’s Piano Sonata No. 3 and Mussorgsky’s *Pictures at an Exhibition* as its main program. Mussorgsky’s *Pictures at an Exhibition*—which was also highly acclaimed at the 2014 “Tokyo Spring Music Festival”—is one of Alessio Backs’s absolute signature pieces, one he has continued to perform at concerts around the world. This recording of Scriabin and Mussorgsky is truly a long-awaited release for Alessio Backs. The magnificent “Pictures at an Exhibition” brought to life by Alessio Backs’s hands—his performance and sense of color are not to be missed.
