Boris Berezovsky Recital
The great Russian pianist Boris Berezovsky performed as part of the music program of the 62nd Dubrovnik Summer Festival, two days after his piano duo with Alexander Ghindin, on Saturday the 20th of August in the Rector's Palace Atrium.
The winner of the Gold Medal at the 1990 International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow, Boris Berezovsky today has established himself both as the most powerful among virtuoso pianists and as a musician gifted with a unique insight and immense sensitivity. His exceedingly strong pianist expressions amazed the Festival audience last year by perfectly expressing Liszt’s “Transcendental Etudes”. The festival audience had a chance to listen, between other works, Brahms' Variations on a Theme by Paganini and 3 Hungarian Dances, Morton Gould's Boogie Woogie Etude, Chasin's Flirtation in Chinese Garden and Rush hour in Hong Kong, Gershwin's 3 Preludes, Albéniz's Asturias i Granada, Chopin's Minute Valse and Ravel's La valse.
The interesting repertoar and the extraordinary musician as „a true successor of the great Russian pianists“ as famous British magazine Gramophone described Berezovsky provided the audience with a great musical evening.
