Modern Classics

Top trainers, such as the author Grandmaster Dorian Rogozenco, strongly recommend regular study of well-explained classical games to improve your understanding of chess in the long term. These games are a part of chess culture that every aspiring chess player or chess enthusiast should know. The new video course ‘Modern Classics’ by former German national coach Dorian Rogozenco, is a continuation of his course ‘Chess Classics - Games you need to know’. It presents 33 famous games from modern chess history - from 1935 to 1999, played by world champions and top grandmasters. In addition, the course includes a video about a remarkable legacy of the 9th World Champion Tigran Petrosian - the positional quality sacrifice.

Video sample: Larsen-Petrosian, 1966

Video sample: Karpov-Kasparov, 1993

Each chapter contains the video presentation of the game in CB-Books format plus an introductory text with background information, also a diagram with a critical position, and a game-replayer - in which the user can view the variations from the video and analyse them with an engine. With this carefully and competently structured course, you can work on your understanding of chess, or simply enjoy the games of the great masters!
