SAVVA ZOLOTAROV performed by Etude op.8 in fis-moll /ArtDialog Festival 2022

►SAVVA ZOLOTAROV
Savva was born in 2011 in Kyiv, Ukraine. He started his piano lessons in 2018 in a private manner. In 2020, he joined the 3rd class of the Kyiv State Music Lyceum named for Mykola Lysenko (teacher Maryna Kalinina), and six months later he made his debut on the stage of the Columned Hall of the National Philharmonic of Ukraine. In 2021, Savva became a laureate (the 4th and 3rd prize, category "B", "D" of the Debut group) of the International Competition of Young Pianists in memory of Vladimir Horovitz. Due to the pandemic, the competition was first held online. Unfortunately, the International Volodymyr Krainev Competition, for which Savva was preparing and which was supposed to take place in March 2022 in Kharkiv, failed due to the war.

Today, Savva is preparing a new major program, which includes works by J. S. Bach, V.A. Mozart, L. Beethoven, F. Chopin, F. Liszt, S. Rakhmaninoff, as well as famous Ukrainian composers - S. Bortkevich and V. Kosenko.

Savva hopes that neither the pandemic nor the war will interfere with his dream - to play his first concert with the orchestra this year!

►VIKTOR KOSENKO (Ukrainian: Віктор Степанович Косенко; 23 November [O.S. 11 November] 1896 – 3 October 1938) was a Ukrainian composer, pianist, and educator. He was regarded by his contemporaries as a master of lyricism. His first compositions were markedly influenced by the works of composers such as Alexander Scriabin, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Sergei Rachmaninoff, and his compatriot Mykola Lysenko.
Kosenko's life is conclusively divided into three distinct phases, in Warsaw, where he studied with renowned teachers Mikhail Sokolovsky and Iryna Miklashovskaya, in Zhytomyr, where he began teaching piano and music theory at the Music Technicum, later becoming director of the Zhytomyr Music School, and finally in Kyiv, where he devoted more time to symphonic compositions such as his Heroic Overture, which brought him due recognition in the world of Soviet music. He was a leading figure among the broad-minded artistic collective of 20th-century Soviet music.[
Kosenko's music combines a post-romantic idiom with intonations of Slavic folk songs and Western-European influences. His vocal, chamber and symphonic works are among the most important pieces of that time in USSR. He composed over 100 compositions for piano among waltzes, preludes, nocturnes, sonatas and mazurkas,[6] in a total of about 250 musical works such as his symphonic Moldavian poem, violin and piano concertos, trios and string quartets during his short musical career. His vocal compositions include a large number of ballads, choral and folk arrangements as well
