Performances by the Russian pianist Vladimir Tropp (b. 1939), particularly of works by Rachmaninov, Scriabin and Medtner are widely acclaimed. A long-time academic, he has in his career made a series of radio, LP and CD recordings. In 1998, one of his series of three CDs entitled "Russian Miniatures" was awarded the prestigious "Record Academy" prize for best classical recording of the year. For Fondamenta, he has recorded a Russian recital destined to continue the acclaim he is accustomed to receiving, and opening the eyes and ears of many listeners approaching him for the very first time.
