This second and final volume of Olga Solovieva’s complete edition contains all of Alexey Stanchinsky’s published piano pieces composed after 1910, as well as recently discovered early works and numerous world premiere recordings. ‘Stanchinsky’s music is like an exposed nerve, all at the limits of the senses. It reveals the innermost feelings, expressing what is in the soul.’ – Olga Solovieva. Released in November 2019, Volume 1 of Stanchinsky’s piano works (GP766) received wide critical acclaim.

 Writes Olga Solovieva: “Stanchinsky’s piano music is an unparalleled phenomenon. His talent is vivid and his music melodic in nature. It connects the musicality of the Baroque and Romantic eras with the uniqueness of Russian folk music. His melodies are characterised by a special sinuous quality, which relates it to ancient Russian church music. This second volume of Stanchinsky’s complete piano works includes all of the published works written after 1910, during the last four years of his short life, and also contains the premiere recordings of Stanchinsky's early pieces, which were recently discovered. Some of the later works are tragic in tone but their finales are always enlightened, providing hope; in the finale the music achieves peace with either a light conclusion, or a heroic conclusion. In the last two decades, the interest in Stanchinsky’s music has been increasing, and I believe that a new complete critical edition of his piano music is now very much needed.”
