A musical descendant of Alexander Scryabin, Russian pianist and composer Vladimir Peskin was a close friend of the trumpet legend, Timofei Dokshizer, and wrote a whopping 75 minutes worth of romantic, singing, virtuosic and brilliant music for trumpet and piano, a great amount of which has remained nearly forgotten until today.
This is Giuliano's tribute to this great idol of his, and to the great Russian trumpet tradition.
