NEUE ZURICHER ZEITUNG, 14 May 2007

“The performance of a Ukrainian pianist was sensational!”

TAGES ANZEIGER, Zurich, 10 November 2010

Martin Ebel. “Zurich. Tonhalle. Alexey Botvinov – a famous expert on Rachmaninoff – shone in the first part of the most well-known Rachmaninoff’s concerto #2. No other music performance, perhaps, needs such a high level of concentration and hand, head and character combination. Being a virtuoso, Botvinov lived up to all our expectations. He ‘immersed’ himself into the sound of the orchestra and then ‘emerged’ out of it, easily overcoming the difficulties of the hardest mind-blowing passages. Fortunately, the conductor gave Botvinov all the freedom he needed to produce his cantilena sound. The event was sold out and the audience was thrilled with delight”.

SCHLESWIG HOLSTEIN ZEITUNG, Germany, 11 February 2011

Unbeatable performance
Alexey Botvinov’s performance of Rachmaninoff’s piano concerto No. 3 accompanied by Schleswig – Holstein’s Symphony Orchestra (conducted by Michael Kutson) can be easily called unbeatable. Ukrainian pianist knows his music to perfection – Botvinov’s skilled hands made his grand piano sing magnificently. Indeed, this artful interpretation of both the soloist and the orchestra helped us experience a world of unreal power and richness of mysterious, sorrowful and sensual melodies – a lost world of the unblemished Beauty that belongs to the ultimate aristocratic Romantic.
