Description: Lyadov / Fialko - Ciccolini Prizewinner Recital [New CD] Artist: Lyadov / Fialko Title: Ciccolini Prizewinner Recital Condition: Format: CD Release Date: 2022 Label: Divine Art UPC: 809730021121 Genre: Classical Artists Violetta Fialko is an exceptionally talented Ukrainian pianist, who has been signed by Divine Art for her commercial recording debut, as winner of the 2021 Ciccolini Prize for Pianists, a new international competition which had to be held 'virtually' due to the Covid pandemic. At the time of writing this, Violetta is living in a part of Ukraine which has so far not been desecrated, having been evacuated from her home town. The audio masters arrived from the studio in Kyiv only days before the Russian attack, for which we are thankful, and we do not yet know if the studio still exists. Leaving the war aside, we have a brilliantly talented pianist who has chosen a varied and highly virtuosic program of Russian Romantic classics (though Prokofiev, to give him his due, was born in Ukraine). Violetta was born in 1997 into a family of musicians. She began to attend music school at the age of 5, and at 9 entered the Lysenko Specialized Music School in Kyiv, graduating with top honors in 2016 and entering the Kyiv Conservatory. She won many prizes, culminating in the 2021 Ciccolini Prize which has led to this album being made. She worked (until the current war began) as a teacher of piano performance and music theory, and is also a volunteer and program host on the Evangelical Radio station 'Emmanuel'. We commend this album as the debut of a fantastic pianist and also in support of her home country and peace and freedom everywhere.© DirectToU LLC. All Rights Reserved.
