Abstract

The Saratov Piano School is one of the most outstanding music schools in Russia, owing to its rich history and deep-rooted traditions. The Saratov Conservatory, founded as the third conservatory in the country and the first in the province, has played a pivotal role in shaping the school's identity. The school's lineage can be traced back to renowned pianists such as K. Igumnov and G. Neuhaus, among others. The school takes pride in its contemporary pianist pleiad, which includes several notable names such as Albert Tarakanov, Anatoly Katz, Anatoly Skripai, and Lev Shugom. Each of these pianists possesses a distinctive artistic personality and has their own preferences in terms of repertoire selection. However, due to its location on the periphery, the school has struggled to gain wider recognition.
