MI HISTORIA AMERICANA – SUR THE ENCORES
Incl. taxes (plus applicable )
Release date: 2 October 2026
Following his acclaimed album My American Story – North, star pianist Daniil Trifonov continues his journey through the Americas. With Mi Historia Americana – Sur, he turns his attention to South America and the Caribbean. The special 1-LP edition The Encores presents five selected piano works, combining well-loved repertoire from the continent with Trifonov’s personal discoveries and arrangements.
The album features Michel Camilo’s Suntan in Trifonov’s own transcription for piano, as well as two works by Cuban composer Ernesto Lecuona: Y la negra bailaba! and La Comparsa. These are joined by Suave acalanto from Oscar Lorenzo Fernández’s Suite brasileira No. 1 and Osvaldo Golijov’s colourful Levante, arranged for piano by Brunetti.
Spanning a broad arc across the South American continent, Trifonov creates a richly layered musical panorama. At the same time, the album gains a personal dimension through Trifonov’s close connection to the region, lending this musical journey of discovery a special significance.
