Vsevolod Zavidov is considered one of the most promising young pianists to emerge from the great Russian tradition. A pupil of Nelson Goerner’s, he made his name on the international stage by winning the very first Radu Lupu Prize in 2024 and the UBS Young Soloists Prize in 2025.
He chose to devote his first solo recording Vsevolod Zavidov Plays Rachmaninoff to Rachmaninoff with three transcriptions of Bach's violin pieces, the Études-Tableaux Op. 33 and the Variations on a Theme by Corelli:
"Virtually unfathomable music. Not merely a composition, but an entire mythology. Interwoven with countless links to his works of every period, it is like a cipher – filled with disguises, transformations, ironies, reminiscences... yet one and the same story," says Zavidov, who concludes this colourful programme with his own magnificent transcription of the famous Vocalise from 1912.
