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, presenting a program that combines beloved repertoire from the region with his own discoveries.
The album features piano works by Gabriela Lena Frank, Ginastera, Guarnieri, Lecuona and Villa-Lobos, alongside Trifonov’s own tango. Two orchestral works with the São Paulo Symphony Orchestra broaden the scope of the album: Ary Barroso’s popular Aquarela do Brasil and the world-premiere recording of Osvaldo Golijov’s vividly coloured Cuadros del Sur.
Spanning Brazil, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Peru and Argentina, 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.
