HARLINGEN, Texas - Did you know about the Russia-Paris connection? \\xa0
According to Russian Pianist, Danil Trifonov, to this day, many building and street signs are bilingual Russian/French. \\xa0
Trifonov explained this Russian/French connection when I recently spoke to him about his latest release, Silver Age, an homage to music created during this important period in Russian History.
Pianist Danil Trifinov\\u2019s Silver Age album, includes Scriabin's Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in F sharp minor Op.20; Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No.2 in G minor Op.16; and Three Movements from Stravinsky\\u2019s Petrushka.\\xa0
