ABOUT SVETOZAR IVANOV
Pianist Svetozar Ivanov has made numerous appearances as recitalist and orchestra soloist in Europe and

was called “superbly original, quite moving, personal and musically absorbing” while his CD “Vers la flamme”
was celebrated for performances which were “played with aplomb, panache and complete conviction” and
interpretation “filled with sensual longing, anguished yearning, anxious dread and provocative energy”.
