Beautifully captured, Daniil Trifonov's 'Silver Age' is an epic sojourn into Russian aesthetic history / Audiophile Audition

Audiophile Audition's Gary Lemco writes......Pianist Daniil Trifonov (b. 1991) conceives this album as a tour of the fin de siècle sensibility in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Paris, a grand kaleidoscope of often revolutionary personalities who consciously assaulted the established, complacent expectations of their musical public. As Trifonov expresses his premise, "The Silver Age of art in Russian history is not a single aesthetic, but describes an increasingly fractured social, political, and intellectual environment – a cocktail of different artistic expressions, in agitated interaction."

An epic sojourn into Russian aesthetic history, beautifully captured (January and October 2019) by Recording Engineers Silas Brown and Marcus Herzog, under the Production supervision of Sid McLauchlan.
