The young “Russian genius” (Corriere della Sera) came to international prominence when, in 2014, he won the International Tchaikovsky Competition for Young Musicians at age thirteen. “Contrary to what could be expected of a youngster …, he demonstrated not only high technical accuracy but also an incredible maturity. Crystal clear sounds and perfect balance revealed his exceptional ability” (Amadeus). Malofeev has quickly established himself as one of the most prominent pianists of his generation. His performances have garnered high praise from critics, with publications such as Der Standard declaring his debut at the Musikverein as “a world piano revolution”.

A major rising star on the international music scene, pianist Alexander Malofeev has received adoring reviews for his recent debuts throughout the United States. Malofeev won the prestigious International Tchaikovsky Competition for Young Musicians when he was only 13 years old, and now, the sky appears to be the limit. In a recital that includes works by virtuoso Russian pianist-composers Scriabin, Medtner, and Rachmaninoff, as well as a J. S. Bach organ concerto reworked from Vivaldi, he will combine virtuosity with “probing interpretative depths” and “a rare poetic grace” (Boston Classical Review).

Carnegie Hall

“It is all too common for many young virtuosos to offer more flair than substance. But Alexander Malofeev is no ordinary prodigy…Rachmaninoff unfolded in multiple dimensions, with playing of fiery intensity and searching expression. Malofeev worked like a sculptor, reveling in the first movement’s melodic curves and thick textures. His pearly tone made the quiet moments shimmer, and the finale sounded with a hymn-like serenity.” (Boston Classical Review)
