Veselin Stanev (Piano)
Vesselin Stanev was
born in Varna, Bulgaria in 1964 and studied under Prof. Dmitry Bashkirov at the
Moscow Conservatoire. While still a student, he took part in prestigious piano
competitions: the P. I. Tchaikovsky International Competition (Moscow, 1982) and
the Marguetite Long International Competition (Paris, 1986). He received awards
at both competitions. Between 1988 and 1990 Vesselin Stanev specialized with
Alexis Weisenberg in Paris and at the same time started an international career
(currently he lives in France and Switzerland). He has been on numerous tours
and recitals in Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Japan, Bulgaria, Russia.
His appearances have inevitably been accompanied by favourable reviews of his
art, remarking on his exceptional technique, virtuosity, and musical
individuality, which sets him apart from most excellent, but "ordinary"
pianists.
