Pianist Andrea Vivanet, who in 2019 had published a well recieved Szymanowski album, now has recorded Preludes of three Russian masters of different generations. His Russian Album starts with Sergey Taneyev's Prelude and Fugue in G sharp minor and ends with Dmitry Shostakovich's 24 Preludes op. 24. Between you will find the first recordings of three cycles of pieces by Nikolai Tcherepnin:

6 Preludes op. 17 (1900)
5 Morceaux op. 18 (1901)
"Primitifs", 12 Adaptions d'anciennes melodies russes (1926)

Again, many thanks. The Taneyev Prelude and Fugue is a very fine piece but this seems worth a punt for the Tcherepnin in any case.

The Tcherepnin pieces are real finds. There may be a certain number of recordings of Taneyev's Prelude and Fugue, but Vivanet's performance can stand each comparison. His talent to illuminate complicated musical structures shows itself well in the fugue. I am sure you will not be disappointed.

What a very interesting and adventurous disk. The Tcherepnin pieces are particularly intriguing - and really rather good. But, in truth, everything on this disk is "top drawer". Something for the Christmas stocking, methinks!
