Members of the Tcherepnin family helped shape European music history for more than a century, beginning with Nikolai Tcherepnin (1873-1945), continuing with his son Alexander (1899-1971) and ending with Ivan (1943-1998), who continued the family practice of composing into a third generation. Combining traditional and innovative elements, these recordings demonstrate an evolving compositional style, from late-Romantic to late-20th-century.
