The album opens the new recording Blue series – another collection published by the Fryderyk Chopin Institute.
The Blue series is an exceptional project presenting unique music portraits of the most interesting personalities of the 16th International Chopin Piano Competition, which took place in 2010. The albums containing selected recordings from rehearsals, auditions and laureates’ concerts show the talent, maturity and artistic individuality of young pianists.
Yulianna Avdeeva has won the 16th Chopin Competition and she has received also very prestigious special prize for the best performance of Chopin’s sonata founded by Krystian Zimerman. In 2006, she became the winner of the 61st Music Competition in Geneva and now she is successfully giving concerts all over the world.
In 2008 she has made her debut during the 4th International Music Festival Chopin and his Europe and in 2011 she will play in Warsaw twice: she will give a solo piano recital and a symphonic concert with world-famous Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment.
