His body of work spans a wide range of genres, including 14 piano sonatas, three piano concertos, chamber music, and vocal works—all of which are rich in emotion and narrative depth. This album features works from three distinct periods. The tranquil and beautiful musical ideas found in the “Trilogy” sonatas—composed in memory of his wife’s brother Andrei—the short yet exceptionally eloquent “Fairy Tale” sonata, and his final sonata, “Pastoral,” encapsulate the landscapes of his homeland, Russia. Recorded in Canada in 2015 by Paul Stewart (piano).
