Astonishing that this 14 year old can play with the maturity of pianists three times his age. He exceeds even some legendary pianists. His sensitive delicate timing and touch are simply out of this world.

[Bouncybon]

Alexander Malofeev will be one of the greatest pianists of the 21st Century - I am sure of it.
To have accomplished so much at such a young age is extraordinary. But to bring to each performance such absolute mastery, stability, maturity, self-assurance and exquisite musicianship makes him unique. He is always 'at one' with the music and feels the beauty of the work with deep emotion, expressing its humanity to perfection. A prince among musicians.

This dear young man turns 23 in October 2024. His talent and fame has continued to grow and grow. He is the greatest! 💕🎶

[rothvinbosley]

His technical mastery and interpretive sills are not to be believed. A gigantic talent has appeared again from Russia.

Неподкупное обаяние, красота в движении рук, пальцев, весь облик юного Гения завораживает, очаровывает с первых звуков, и уже не отпускает до последнего прикосновения к клавишам. Все удивляет в нем и все непостижимо, удивительно, глубоко, совершенно!!! Браво, Александр!!!

[Istvanoiv]

I appreciate and am grateful to you for sharing your pearls for our joy! You are Alexander the Great!

[thomasthompson]

I watch this, I hear it . . . but . . . in a strange way I don't believe anyone would be capable of turning in such a great performance. It does, however, make me quite grateful for Alexander Malofeev's continuing presence in the world. Even here, at a very early age indeed, his performance abilities are far beyond extraordinary. I wish him every continued success.

[DorothyDolenc]

So young, so talented!I can imagine how many arduous hours of practice were spent, so much dedication!Thank you.

[ЛюдмилаЛагута-ык]

Слушаешь и забываешь, что играет ребенок, так как это исполнение Мастера! Такое мощное исполнение! Сашенька, великолепно, спасибо!!!

[bojanikonic]

Liszt would be speechless!
Alexander Malofeev, you will by known by many generations.

[penniesfromheaven]

I just looked at the date of this video and realized that Alexander was just 14 yo when he performed this!!! Just unbelievable to me that someone this young could perform this incredibly difficult piece of music. He's a gift from above in my humble opinion. Thank you for sharing your talent with us Alexander. You bless us greatly!

[adrianravarour]

Clearly Aleksandr Malofeev is on his way to the top of the (Sviatoslav) Richter scale of music. I love his brilliance, sensitivity and beauty he achieves in his renditions. Music and piano are his loves. Thank you.

[marielatarnowska]

What can I say, just thank you for giving us such marvellous moments in our lives ❤

[garymckinley]

Thank you very much, Maestro Alexander Malofeev.  Your playing is a blessing to us all!!

[Omar_Halilovic]

Truly amazing! It's almost a miracle when an extreme difficult piece like this is played by someone this young.👏👏👏

[АрияСветлова-ду]

Браво! Талантище и труд! Спасибо вам Саша.

[syroyid-live]

very nice dynamic control. never before I heard anyone getting this lyricism and elegance from Mazzepa. i'm speechless

[eilyeungcy]

I know nothing about music. I don't know why I'm so 'absorbed' and my mind is let go by the music played by Alexander in the U tubes. I started to search on each and every performances he has uploaded there and listened until the last tune he played, which I'll never do to other performers.

[gilbertdaroy]

A very difficult piece, and yet he played it with such panache at such a young age. Incredible.

[newgeorge]

I am sitting here shaking my head because I am so blown away by this performance. I heard his other public performance of this where the piano was rather out-of-tune! This performance is slightly more polished and reserved - for dvd obviously but still nothing short of miraculous by any standards but played by a teenager???? I really have no words to express how wonderful this young pianist is. I look forward to hearing many more performances but, yes, I do wonder if he needs to pace himself? He plays from the inside and perhaps he simply needs to play a great deal?
