LATEST NEWS
Several new works of mine have been released this year. Two are chamber music: one features the complete unpublished art songs of Marco Anzoletti (1867-1929), a world premiere recording resulting from extensive research; the other album, where the West meets the East, includes music by Brahms and the Korean composer Isang Yun (the debut album of my former student, Huynah Cecilia Son). The other releases are piano solo recordings. You can see here the covers of the single with Scriabin's Etude Op. 8 No. 12, of my recording of the Nocturnes, which has received a 5-star review in the American music magazine Fanfare (you can see this video realized by the label, Halidon Music), and the release of my performance the newly discovered Waltz in A minor by Chopin, in two versions: one on a modern Fazioli (here the YouTube link), and one, world premiere recording on period instrument, on a Pleyel (you find here an article on this). Another album is forthcoming, already available for pre-save: https://ffm.to/reflectingmozart​
​
But talking of something just a little more important, I draw your attention to other intiatives:
​​
- all calls are good to Stop the bloodshed in Israel/Palestine:

​
- as for the bloodshed in Ukraine, the proceeds from the streams and sales of one of my albums, dedicated to music of the living Ukrainian composer Silvestrov and the Russian composer Rachmaninov, have been and will continue to be entirely donated to an activist who helps refugees from all wars. In my own small way.
