Award-Winning Pianist, Anthony Ratinov, releases “Horizons” with KNS Classical

KNS Classical is proud to announce the exceptional release of “Horizons” by Anthony Ratinov. The recording and publication of this album is a result of Ratinov being the absolute winner of the Carles & Sofia International Piano Competition (Carles & Sofia Victory Award, 2022 edition).

Known for his technical mastery and vibrant artistry, Ratinov presents a diverse program that traverses a range of musical eras and styles, showcasing his ability to bring depth and character to each piece.

“Horizons” opens with Bach’s English Suite No. 2, in which his touch balances precision with a warm interpretation, bringing a fresh perspective to this timeless work. This is followed by two of Bach’s Chorale Preludes arranged by Ferruccio Busoni, and continues with Scriabin’s intense Piano Sonata No. 5, delivering its complex textures and evocative harmonies with both power and sensitivity. The album concludes in Spanish rhythm with Albéniz’s Málaga from Iberia.

Do not lose the opportunity to experience Ratinov’s “crystalline sharpness and great inner energy” (Ape Musicale) in “Horizons”, now available on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon and YouTube.
