This release from Shelest Piano Duo presents pieces for piano solo and piano four hands by Ukranian composers written between the late 19th and 21st centuries. Having established themselves as solo artists, while garnering prizes and awards along the way, the Ukrainian born husband and wife Shelest Piano Duo brings to the performance stage inventive programs of not only solo repertoire, but four hand music. First Prize winners of Bradshaw and Buono International Piano Competition, the Duo made their Carnegie Hall debut in 2011 and appeared at the venue annually since. Their debut album "Tutti, orchestral arrangements for piano four hands" has been broadcasted at over 100 radio stations in North America. Anna and Dmitri reside in New York City.
