Support Nikolay Medvedev’s New Album: Jazz in Classic

Pianist Nikolay Medvedev is launching a crowdfunding campaign on Startnext to support the production of his upcoming album, Jazz in Classic. This exciting project aims to blend classical piano traditions with jazz influences, showcasing Medvedev’s versatility and innovative approach to music.

The album will feature a carefully curated selection of works that bridge the gap between classical and jazz genres — including pieces by Nikolai Kapustin and George Gershwin, among others.

With Jazz in Classic, Medvedev seeks to create a fresh and engaging listening experience that appeals to a wide audience, from lovers of classical piano to jazz aficionados. His sensitive artistry and technical command will bring new life to these distinctive compositions, highlighting their hybrid spirit and expressive range.

Recording an album of this caliber involves considerable costs — including studio rental, sound engineering, mixing and mastering, as well as the design and production of physical media such as CDs. Through the Startnext platform, fans and supporters can contribute to the realization of the project and receive exclusive rewards in return. These include signed CDs, high-quality digital downloads, personalized thank-you messages, and even private performances, creating a unique connection between the artist and his audience.

Medvedev’s previous recordings and live performances have earned praise for their emotional depth, refined tone, and exceptional precision. His interpretations of Russian composers such as Rachmaninoff, Medtner, and Tchaikovsky have been described by critics as powerful, poetic, and profoundly human. With Jazz in Classic, Medvedev takes a new step in his musical evolution — embracing a repertoire that expands his expressive vocabulary while remaining rooted in the great traditions of piano artistry.

The crowdfunding campaign is live for a limited time, and reaching the funding goal is essential for bringing the project to life. Supporters are warmly encouraged to back the campaign early and help spread the word through social media and personal networks.
