The young pianist Sergey Tanin is currently one of the most promising pianists of his generation. He gained his first international recognition at the Géza Anda Competition in Zurich in 2018 (3rd prize and audience prize). In October 2020, he won first prize at the renowned Kissinger KlavierOlymp. After his debut album with works by Johannes Brahms, Schubert-Liszt and Sergey Prokofiev, he now follows up with a pure Schumann program: the Davidsbündler-Tänze, the «Faschingsschwank aus Wien» as well as the Toccata op. 7 and the Arabeske, op. 18. Once again, the pianist can impressively demonstrate his interpretative depth as well as his musicality and virtuosity.
Born in 1995 in Siberia/Yakutia, Sergey Tanin started to play the piano at the age of 5. At 11, he already performed with the Moscow Symphony Orchestra in the Great Hall of the Tchaikovsky Conservatory in Moscow. After his graduation in 2019 from Moscow Conservatory (class of prof. Irina Plotnikova), Sergey continued to study at Basel Musik Academie with Claudio Martinez-Mehner. He is holder of the Swiss Government Excellence Scholarship and in 2020, the Swiss Television (SRF) broadcasted a documentary about Sergey – “The Pianist who came in from the Cold”.
