Alexander Maria Wagner, J.S. Bach & R. Schumann: Piano Works

Alexander Maria Wagner, the 19-year-old pianist and composer, wrote his first symphony at aged fourteen. This astounding work, with Alexei Kornienko conducting the Sofia Philharmonic, was Wagner's first CD release. On this CD, the pianist Wagner has set out to demonstrate that he is an interpreter who has something definitively personal to say about his great predecessors J.S. Bach and Robert Schumann, in addition to his own work, Inferno which shares their illustrious company here.
