Next time my piano teacher tells me to sit up straight I will show her this video

[ririxkiwi]

it’s almost like you were born to play rachmaninoff, truly stunning

[dreamer_]

Bloody hell. Such clarity and dexterity, like Richter or Kissin here. Simply amazing example of Russian piano technique.

[RosyAfterglow]

WOW! He plays it like he’s interpreting the action going in the movie only he can see and feel....the suspense... the chase... the anxiety...the end! BRAVO!!!!

[hastley]

Piano is probably one of the most expressive instrument, it’s crazy just how much can be conveyed without words.

18 yrs old and playing with this level of brilliance! In awe here. The notes are crystal clear and dynamics amazing... Even his focus, pity we could not see the hands at the climax. Bravo

[adrianravarour]

Exquisite technique, dynamics, nuances, and power! Malofeev is on his way to a brilliant career. He always bows at the end; we bow to him.

[Bcutter]

I am sure he will be considered one of the best or even the best pianist in the world soon. Coming up on Trifonov!

.. this is the BEST INTERPRETATION of this PIECE, ever . the WAY HE PLAYS the little red is FLAWLESS . PERFECT TECHNIQUE . NEVER REDUCTIVE . RARE .
And the COLOURS HE GIVES to the PIECE is STILL BETTER THAN RACHMANINOFF HIMSELF has GIVEN .
The CONTRASTS ARE VISIBLY HIGHER, with the ' LOW NOTES ' . the VERY KNOWN METHAPHORE .
WHAT a MUSICALITY .

[petercates]

I am quite impressed with his unusually mature combination of virtuosity and musicality.

[maria_grazia_art]

One of the greatest pianists in the world today and such a great future ahead for him...

I just watched the video of Alexander playing this at the age of 11. That was a miracle in itself! Such a talent and an incredible dedication at such a young age! Now, in this video, you can see the maturity and the emotions entered into the performance and I am blown away by his ability to make the music come alive!! It always seems like he knows exactly how to perform the music to make it sing to our heart and soul!

[lucaenglishteacher]

Phenomenal ... just shocking considering his age. Truly impressive.

[hornet]

👍 It's simply amazing to watch him perform. Every note is crystal clear and distinct. No bluffing with blurred keys.

[juliaromero]

This is one of the most creative interpretation I've ever listened to. Very beautiful. When he played this when he was 11, I was already amazed and now, its unimaginably more beautiful.

[ma_st_se_ma]
