Behzod Abduraimov, Piano

From the venue:

Behzod Abduraimov is “a pianist with an abundance of ‘style and idea’: both virtuoso command and individuality of voice” (Gramophone). “His secret: authenticity, control and a velvet pianissimo” (NRC Handelsblad). “His delicate playing captivates immediately” (SÃÔ? ¼ddeutsche Zeitung).

“Abduraimov didn’t just play with clarity and power, but with fervor and personal commitment” (New York Classical Review). “On technical terms alone, Abdurainov’s reading was a knockout. But it was on expressive terms that Abduraimov shone brightest” (The Plain Dealer). “He positively sings on the piano” (Backtrack).
