The many fans of our Russian Piano Music series may be wondering what new additions will be coming in the future, as it is 18 months or so since the last volume (12) was released. The good news is that preparations are well under way for three more instalments in the series, all featuring the work of well known composers. Alfonso Soldano (whose Bortkiewicz CD was very well reviewed) will play music by Tchaikovsky (vol. 13) and Rachmaninov (vol. 14) while another very fine young Italian pianist, Stefania Argentieri, presents an album of music by Prokofiev. The three new albums are likely to be available from the summer of 2019.

Alfonso Soldano
Following the critical acclaim given to the recent release of music by Sergei Bortkiewicz by Italian pianist Alfonso Soldano (Volume 12 of the Russian Piano series), we have invited Soldano to make two more discs. While currently busy with his recording of music by Castelnuovo-Tedesco to be released in the late summer, Soldano will record later this year albums of piano works by Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov.
Another addition to the series will include the debut recording by dynamic and brilliant Italian pianist Stefania Argentieri in a program of works by Prokofiev.
