Description: | With his latest album, Trifonov retraces his immigrantâ??s journey in the â??New
Worldâ?, through American piano scores ranging from jazz and swing to
modernism, minimalism and popular soundtracks.
The project is chronologically bookended by two great American piano concerti
composed almost a century apart: George Gershwinâ??s audacious, jazzy 1925
Piano Concerto in F, and the world premiere of Mason Batesâ?? effervescent
Piano Concerto, commissioned for Trifonov and premiered by the pianist with
Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the Philadelphia Orchestra (the recording
preserved here) in 2022.
The album also includes the Piano Variations (1930) by Aaron Copland, a
transcription of Art Tatumâ??s 1949 recording of â??I Cover the Waterfrontâ?
by Daniil Trifonov, Bill Evansâ??s slow, contemplative, harmonically lush
version of â??When I Fall in Loveâ?, themes from Hollywood films The Firm
and American Beauty, as well as John Cageâ??s iconoclastic 4â??33 (1952)
Trifonov was a young man when he left Moscow for a life in America.
My American Story â?? North completes a part of the musical autobiography he
has been writing all along. The albumâ??s sequel, My American Story â?? South, will
showcase the music of Latin America, a region he has also come to call home. - 180G |
