Born in 1991, Trifonov is taking the music world by storm. Just weeks after winning the Arthur Rubinstein International Piano Master Competition, he took First Prize and a host of medals at the International Tchaikovsky Competition.

Martha Argerich says, "What he does with his hands is technically incredible. It's also his touch – he has tenderness and also the demonic element. I never heard anything like that."

Trifonov's undeniable talent and deep musicality combine to form an exciting new keyboard star.
