Irina Lankova

Repertoire

Irina specialises in the interpretation of romantic composers and finds her inspiration in the subtlety of Schubert and the dignity of Chopin, in Schumann's blazing imagination and in the laconism of Beethoven, in Rachmaninov's profound nostalgia and the exquisite mysticism of Scriabin.
