About the Orchestra Biography Conductors Musicians Guest Artists RNO Board of Trustees Concerts in Russia RNO on Tour Magic of Music Movies ... Pied Piper Fantasy Mikhail Pletnev Photos Reviews Recordings Unofficial Website ... 2005 Grammy-winning CD Founder and Artistic Director Mikhail Pletnev is an artist whose genius as pianist, conductor and composer enchants and amazes audiences around the globe. His musicianship encompasses a dazzling technical power and provocative emotional range, and a searching interpretation that fuses instinct with intellect. At the keyboard and podium alike, Pletnev is recognized as one of the finest artists of our time. Pletnev was Gold Medal and First Prize winner of the 1978 Tchaikovsky International Piano Competition when he was only 21, a prize that earned him early recognition worldwide. An invitation to perform at the 1988 superpower summit in Washington led to a friendship with Mikhail Gorbachev and the historic opportunity to make music in artistic freedom. In 1990 Pletnev formed the first independent orchestra in Russia's history. The risks of this step, even with Gorbachev's endorsement, were enormous and it was Pletnev's reputation and commitment that made his long-held dream a reality. Sharing his vision for a new model for the performing arts, many of the country's finest musicians joined Pletnev in launching the Russian National Orchestra. Under his leadership, the RNO achieved in a few short years a towering stature among the world's orchestras. Pletnev describes the RNO as his greatest joy and today serves as its Artistic Director and head of the

About the Orchestra Concerts in Russia RNO on Tour Magic of Music ... Pied Piper Fantasy Posted with permission from International Piano Magazine. For more information please visit their site, http://www.pianomagazine.com/ Beyond Borders International Piano Magazine November / December 2003 In a rare and exclusive interview, Mikhail Pletnev talks to Lynnda Greene about one of the musical phenomenons of modern times Surely no pianist on the circuit today has invited such disparate observations from the media as Mikhail Pletnev. Indeed, some writers, perhaps flummoxed by this most private of artists, have so enjoyed parodying every personal gesture and artistic peculiarity that we're barely able to discern between character and caricature. As rendered by their leagues, he is by turns the difficult, diabolical genius infamous for devouring writers alive; the icy mastermind of superhuman technical power, provocative emotional range and daredevil cheek; the infuriating antagonist of the Urtext - a quixotic figure embellished with the now standard references to the chain-smoked cigarettes, the pallbearer walk, the bloodhound stoicism, the impenetrable gloom on the inscrutable gravitas features. Such, we are told, is the magnificent conundrum that is Russia's finest pianist. But on a blustery afternoon last March in New York City's Steinway Hall, where he has been practising for a recital the following evening, Pletnev seems none of the above. In fact, one suspects the maestro has developed a certain modus operandi that, honed over years, he deploys on select journalistic occasions entirely for reportorial consumption. This is not one of them. Hesitant and tired from two long flights in recent days, he brightens when his American manager, also a good friend, shows up unexpectedly to make an impromptu threesome. It's said Russians like best to talk over a kitchen table, not easy to find in Midtown Manhattan, but we make do with a secluded booth in a tony dive across 57th Street where serendipity is the day's speciality; there will be no agenda, no questions, no tape recorder. What follows over the next two hours is not an interview but an easeful flowering, genus glasnost.

Mikhail Pletnev's Biography Mikhail Pletnev was born in Archangel, Russia, in 1957. His parents were both musicians, and Pletnev displayed exceptional musical talent from an early age.

In 1978, Pletnev won the Gold Medal at the Tchaikovsky International Piano Competition in Moscow. As a result he was able to make concert tours outside the former Soviet Union throughout Europe, Japan, the USA and Israel. One of the highlights of his career came in 1990, when he performed at the personal invitation of Mikhail Gorbachev for the superpower summit with President George Bush in Washington. One of the great pianists of our time, Mikhail Pletnev regularly gives concerts and recitals in major cities as well as at important festivals in Europe, Asia and Russia.

In celebration of the 10th anniversary of the festival, a group of the world's greatest pianists gathered to play arrangements of classical favorites for four to 16 hands on one to eight pianos. Pianists Leif Ove Andsnes, Nicholas Angelich, Martha Argerich, Emanuel Ax, Claude Frank, Evgeny Kissin, Lang Lang, James Levine, Mikhail Pletnev, and Staffan Scheja perform works by Mozart Wagner , Rimsky-Korsakov, Smetana, Sousa , and Gottschalk.
