Izik-Dzurko: Piano Recital

In this recital, award-winning Canadian pianist Jaeden Izik-Dzurko explores the evolving language, dramatic breadth, and technical daring of Alexander Scriabin’s piano works. The album traces the remarkable development of Scriabin’s musical language from his earliest pieces to the sensual, fleeting Piano Sonata No. 5, which represents the summit of Scriabin’s creative path. As a sonorous counterpart, Izik-Dzurko plays Rachmaninov’s brooding Piano Sonata No. 1 in D minor. A purely digital release of four early piano works by Scriabin is also available. Canadian pianist Jaeden Izik-Dzurko was the gold medalist of the 2024 Leeds International Piano Competition and a recipient of a Borletti-Buitoni Trust Fellowship. He has performed in many of the world’s leading concert halls, such as Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall and the Gewandhaus in Leipzig. His orchestral partnerships include the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, the Bilbao Orkestra Sinfonikoa, and the National Symphony Orchestra Ireland.
