J Bach S / Koroliov / Kammerakademie Potsdam- Concertos for Pianos (CD)
Over the past five years, pianist Anna Vinnitskaya has made three Alpha recordings dedicated to Shostakovitch, Brahms and Rachmaninov. Evgeni Koroliov is a great master of the piano, a great Bach specialist, whose recordings of Bach are an acclaimed benchmark. His piano duo with his wife, Ljupka Hadzi-Georgieva, has made it's mark over the past few years in all the major international concert venues. Also a highly reputed teacher, Koroliov was Anna Vinnitskaya's professor at Hamburg. 'Though I no longer study with him, I still meet and talk with him several times a week,' she confides. 'That helps me further in my development, not just as a pianist but as a human being... Now that I am myself a professor at the same university, I try to carry it on, to pass his experience on to others.' These three Slavonic pianists, who for some time have been aiming to record the Bach concertos as a team, decided to invite a German ensemble that is itself highly expert in Bach interpretation, the Potsdam Chamber Orchestra; they recorded this double album in a legendary venue where some of the greatest artists have recorded: the Jesus-Christus-Kirche in Berlin.
