27 - SERGEY TANIN - THE PIANIST WHO CAME IN FROM TH COLD

The boy from Yakutia was early determined to pursue his solo career with the tenacity of the Siberian. Coal is mined in Sergey Tanin's homeland, in winter you drive your car across frozen rivers, frosty hands are more commonplace than virtuoso fingers. But his goal of a career as a pianist was already set when he was a child. This long-term observation shows how he manages the leap from his icy homeland to Moscow and finally to Switzerland.
