HFL-27 - Sergei Nakariakov

Sergei Nakariakov, recorded July 10, 2019 at the Hyatt Regency downtown Miami during the ITG conference. I felt like I was getting pretty good at interviewing, but I stepped all over myself in this one all because, well, its Sergei! You’ll be glad to know I edited out a bunch of my drivel. Sergei is so laid back, but at the same time very intense and serious regarding his music. He provides some great insight into how he chooses repertoire, his practice sessions, and his working relationship with the amazing pianist Maria Meerovitch. His performance of Ad Absurdum at ITG was off the charts. Sergei pushes the boundaries of what is possible and makes it look so easy. Find out more about him at www.nakariakov.info
