The Hamilton College Department of Music presents pianist Vassily Primakov on Sunday, Nov. 3, at 3 p.m., in Wellin Hall, Schambach Center on the Hamilton College campus.
The recital includes selections from Shumann's Fantasiestücke, Op.12 and Schumann's rarely performed Grand Sonata No. 3. He is joined by Oxana Mikhailoff in the second half of the program for a four hands arrangement of Beethoven's Symphony No. 7.
In recent years, Vassily Primakov has been hailed as a pianist of world class importance. At age 17 he came to New York to pursue studies at the Juilliard School with the noted pianist, Jerome Lowenthal. At Juilliard Primakov won the William Petschek Piano Recital Award, which presented his debut recital at Alice Tully Hall, and while at Juilliard, aided by a Susan W. Rose Career Grant, he won both the Silver Medal and the Audience Prize in the 2002 Gina Bachauer International Artists Piano Competition.
Primakov has released numerous recordings for Bridge Records that include works by Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Schumann, Mendelssohn, Brahms, Chopin, Dvorak, Debussy, Tchaikovsky, Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, Philip Glass, Arlene Sierra and Poul Ruders.
