    This young genius is all about communication. There’s no doubt about his technical mastery of the piano. He is beyond “showing off” or trying to impress. He allows the composer to speak. There’s a real humility in his greatness that reaches hearts and elevates spirits. He is a true servant of goodness, truth & beauty.

    • @DovidShaw
      @DovidShaw 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This is why he is so good. If you take A = 1 B = 2....Z = 26 then
      PIANO PRODIGY = 149 = DIMITRIEVITCH (PV)
      DIMITRIEVITCH MALOFEEV = 228 (PV)
      A VIRTUOSO PIANIST = 228 (PV)
      PV means Placement Values and I have added the values of the letter. So PIANO = 16 + 9 + 1 + 14 + 15 = 55 PRODIGY = 16 + 18 + 15 + 4 + 9 + 7 + 25 = 94 so 55 + 94 = 149. I'll let you work out the rest.
      And yes, by using this code and 4 other codes (connected to this code) I can show how dozens of prodigies are connected to their instrument they play. My book Musical Prodigies will soon be out. Probably in under 2 weeks. I can do this with scientist (connecting the name of the scientist to their invention ) with actors (for example DANIEL CRAIG = 83 = JAMES BOND + COWBOY), with artists (LEONARDO = 84 = MONA LISA) sports people, authors and others. So its all in the name! Welcome to the Divine Codes!

      Yes and it really puts the Tchaikovsky Competitions credibility under a cloud. In 2015 they also did something absurd by not awarding pianist Lucas Debargue who was clearly the best pianist, with even a bronze medal, probably because he is French. I hope Alexander will come to the United States and win the Van Cliburn competition as Alexei Sultanov did in 1989 when he was only 19.

      Alexander Malofeev is the most exciting pianist in the world today. He seems to have memorized the entire piano repertoire. Watching and listening to him play is simultaneously thrilling and calming. I'd rather go to a performance by him than by any other pianist playing today, including Evgeny Kissin, whose turkey gobbling neck is extremely disconcerting. Malofeev is truly incredible. Once in a generation. Maybe once in three generations.

    YES, OH YES! I had actually thought to listen to just the first movement of this interpretation except this pianist made it impossible. It is certainly to his credit to have cultivated such cobalt-blue fire of poetic intensity that emanates through his minimalist gestures. He makes the music his own and shares the joy of spontaneous discovery; taking the audience on an epic journey through a masterpiece they have all doubtless heard countless times already. This is so refreshing! When I first heard this piece(in the mid-seventies) I was instantly enthralled and captivated by the expansiveness of the opening theme. I had never heard anything so powerfully moving before in my life. My favorite original logos(Music expresses wordless odyssey’s) would not occur for decades hence. The gift of music is a foundational spiritual, emotional, and philosophical pillar of life. In that it “soothes the savage breast” I feel especially blessed to have had this truth exemplified throughout my life from my earliest childhood. As a minister I understand it’s effect on proper speech and discreet-effective utterance. Not to mention the perfuming effect on inspirational, resonant writing. I am so happy THE LORD JESUS gave me this glorious acumen to share the joy and lift the spirits of the humble and seeking. PWG

      Ms’ Willis - Good morning! How interesting that my middle name is Wilson similar to your last name. A few nights ago I was up at 11:30 p.m. after having turned in at about 8:15. I decided to turn on my kenwood turntable and listened to Beethoven’s “Tempest” piano sonata, Jesu joy of man’s desiring, an intermezzo by Brahms, Schumann’s Arabesque, and lastly Tchaikovsky’s fourth Symphony. Some years ago an original expression occurred to me “music expresses wordless odyssey’s”, it is one of my favorites that you, doubtless would appreciate. My birthday happens to be the same as Chopin’s(March 1st). I think it is so cool and provides me a unique insight into this great genius’ musical psyche. His music also inspires my “gift of scribe” in a way beyond my comprehension. I sing regularly one of his etudes which I set to lyrics some years ago. My scripture logos for this gift is St. Matthews 13:53, “Therefore, every scribe instructed unto the Kingdom of Heaven is like unto a man who is an householder; who brings out of his treasure things new and old.” Hence the reason I mentioned the term comprehension. Plato wrote: “ Philosophy tempered with music which takes up her abode in a man and becomes the lifelong guardian of his virtue.” In that I am a man I am very circumspect to exercise this gift according to the grace of Jesus bestowed upon me to reflect His beauty thereby returning to Him my talents with the appropriate usury. This is a great privilege indeed. The voice of Jesus is the absolute music; hearing our most prominent faculty. Enjoy your day. Sincerely, Paul

      @@paulgreen9792 Truly eloquent expression..Those "things new and old" you referenced are truly applicable to being faithful to a composers creation. Music indeed is a guardian of virtue, one I am sure King David knew of in coming forth with so many Psalms, many of which were originally musical pieces. Imagine for a moment what these Psalms, especially those with musical superscription, and responsorial, sounded like when performed in the Ancient Temple in Jerusalem, with the attendant choruses, and ancient musical instruments, of which David had a storehouse. Imagine the music of Heaven- there IS music in Heaven. The verse that comes to mind is, "And in His Temple everyone doth speak of His Glory." Part of that storehouse in St.Mat.13:53 is definitely musical or shall we say, sound, a joyful sound ; Psalm 89. Also, in His Presence IS fullness of joy. The ineffable Soundless Voice, the still, small voice often comes thru to us in music. I am Russian and understand this. The superficiality of mere mortal words and reactions does not go deep enough. Take root downward; bear fruit upward. Keep your insightful comments coming! Lastly imagine the musicality of the Voice, the Holy Voice, of Jesus. The peace of the Lord be with you.

    Pianism has attained a new Parnassus with the phenomenal Aleksandr Maloveev.! Please take care to allow other pursuits without allowing them to distract. You are flying too close to the sun at 10-12 hours daily at the piano, Liszt advised no more than 3-4 hours of concentrated practice daily to avoid mechanical playing, although that would be for one of mortal intellect, not you, evidently.! You obviously have the stamina of a Russian bear and the focus of a Siberian wolf. Please do not get burned out and get more rest!

      Alexander didn't get past the 1st round in the 16th Tchaikovsky Competition on June 17-29 2019. Horowitz used to caution his students about practicing 10-12 hrs a day: "when it is time to give a concert, you will sound like you are still practicing" I personally believe he played better than the judges themselves, and it was too much for them.

      Exactly! The fact that he didn't get past the 1st round during the Tchaikovsky Competition on June 17, 2019, indicates that the judges had a stereotyped litimus test which would also have excluded young Horowitz, young Richter, young Arthur Rubinstein, Glenn Gould and young Martha Argerich, since they often achieved hair raising tempos during their early performances.

      carl armstrong what’s the Tchaikovsky Competition? Oh...right. It’s that puffed up competition that catapulted Van Cliburn to international fame 60 years ago. Wow. What a great career THAT turned out to be. 😴
      Malofeev needs to win competitions as much as a giant whale needs a floatation device. He’s doing just fine playing all over and winning hearts wherever he goes.
      P.S. Now, if they had had real judges-the likes of Tatiana Nikolaieva or Sviatoslov Richter-on the competition panel this year it would have probably been a different story. They’d have seen this young pianist’s remarkable, unique talent, especially his remarkable ability to produce the full bodied, gorgeous tone so dear to Nikolaieva.

      @@jeffreymiller4814 VERY well said. Competitions are more about the grandiosity and narcissism of the organizers and the judges than the true artists. I don't know if RAchmaninoff himself won any competitions - who gives a sheet. RAch 2 is one of the most meaningful and poignant expressions of feelings of all time. And Alexander can play it with just as much talent, feeling and enthusiasm as anyone - and I've heard a LOT of them in my many years.
      The movie "Shine" - a true story - shows what happens when one loses focus. That pianist was hell-bent on mastering Rach3 and it broke him in the process. Careful what you wish for.

    Each time I hear Alexander play I hear new things!
    I hear a wonderful focus on the music and not the schmaltz which can be the case with this concerto.
    There is a "push" through the notes which keeps everything fresh and musical and moving.
    Too much pause and emphasis is not what the composer would want.
    This is symphonic music, not some schmaltzy B movie score which can so easily happen with this exquisitely composed music.
    I think it is amazing that this music is completely within the grasp and mental comprehension of this 16 year old.
    Never a falter! Never a forgotten phrase! Always exquisitely phrased and lyrically performed.
    Please don't burn yourself out in your quest for recognition! I want to hear you when you are 40 or 50 and lionized by the world.
    Don't blow it!

Having said that, may I suggest combining o with music like this. A true population explosion of joyous proportion may ensue..

    Exquisite! A dazzling performance by a keyboard giant in the making, however I wish Alexander would read Arthur Rubinstein's 2 books which vividly explain his love for life and why he never became a slave to the piano, since it is not normal for young Alexander to frequently have dark rings around his eyes.

      I am sure you are right, Carl. Alexander MAY be spending too much time without proper relaxation. No doubt he wants to be THE BEST and I am sure he will be!
      He is already astonishingly accomplished. I admire his brilliance and the dedication that has brought him so far at such a young age. But I wonder if he has time for other activities - fun things to do with friends? Camping? Skiing? Cycling? I wonder if he has a dog? Someone should take him to select a puppy. Take his mind off the keyboard for a change...... But we all wish him well in his professional future.

    • @789armstrong
      @789armstrong 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Alexander has been practicing 10-12 hours a day ever since he was quite young. A German music critic recently noted that his concert schedule is so heavy, he doesn't have time to be a boy, which could have lasting psychological effects later on in life. Richter loved to paint in his spare time. I hope Alexander will find himself and not wind up like Leopold Godowsky who was a slave to the piano and a very unhappy man.
