| In January 2002 Arktos Recordings released Dimiter Terziev's debut CD Colours of Bulgaria; Piano Pieces by Pantcho Vladigerov. This is, to the best of our knowledge, the first North American CD entirely devoted to the solo piano music of the great Bulgarian composer Pantcho Vladigerov (also known as Vladiguerov and Wladigeroff). Vladigerov's music was admired by many great composers of the XX century, including R. Strauss, D. Shostakovich and A. Khachaturian. It was performed by famous performers, such as Karajan, Oistrakh and Weissenberg. It is hard to understand why Vladigerov has been almost completely forgotten outside of his native Bulgaria. The CD features 17 of Vladigerov's pieces selected from his several cycles of piano miniatures. It has recently been awarded Four Stars both by the prestigious programme Sound Advice on CBC Radio and La scena Musicale Magazine. For more info, please contact Dimiter at [email protected] |
