His phenomenal facility and musicianship won him both the Aspen and Juilliard concerto competitions\, bringing him to the notice of Isaac Stern and Mstislav Rostropovich and rocketing him into the top echelons of the music world. Peskanov’s major accolades include the Avery Fischer Career Grant\, the first Frederick R.Mann Award\, and Carnegie Hall’s first Isaac Stern Award. Since 2005\, he is president and artistic/executive director of Bargemusic.
