Grigory Sokolov - Pianist grigory sokolov in an artist of visionary insight and profound spritituality. His concerts are events. Two profiles of sokolov. http://www.thump.org/sokolov/
Extractions: Chopin Nocturnes op 68 The French producer and musician Bruno Monsaingeon whose legendary collaborations with Glenn Gould, Menuhin and Richter have become classics of the genre, persuaded Grigory Sokolov to consent to the release of his first new live recording for a decade. The programme catches Sokolov in Paris playing the Beethoven/Komitas/Prokofiev 7 programme. This is a very satisfying presentation of the maesto in concert, caught with the minimum of intrusion by M. Monsaineon's cameras. At present it is available from FNAC 's website but should be available in the US and Europe in early 2004. Latest Interview from piano-news.com - read here Members of the Sokolov mailing list have kindly translated an interview Sokolov gave for Russian TV this year. Its by far the most comprehensive I've seen. You can access it from this link (which may require joining yahoo first). http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sokolov/files/Sokolov-Kultura%20TV.do

Extractions: (Written in 1997...Sokolov's consistent mesmorising of audiences have spread his reputation far and wide !`) Grigory Sokolov is as yet a somewhat undiscovered quantity. The musical public and critics alike react to his playing with an awe seldom reported in other artist's concerts. Sokolov's recordings are breaking beyond pianophiles automatic buy-lists into the sphere of a wider listenership. Reading through the many reviews of his concerts I have, one word seems to dominate; "musicality". It's quite obvious to me that Sokolov has so much more to offer than the typical Russian virtuoso. He has the magical ability to recreate music as if it were freshly minted. Every piece I've ever heard him play on CD or in the concert hall sounds so carefully though through and original. Sokolov is an artist who opens your mind and delves deep into the composer's intentions. Sokolov does not readily fit into any school of pianism. Technically he bears the hallmarks of a superlative Russian training; stunning octaves, wide tonal palette, and brilliant fingers. But then he plays counterpoint like no-one else since Glenn Gould. His playing betrays very few influences of past masters, his style and approach are entirely his and unique. Sokolov's repertoire is intriguingly restricted to a handful of concerti, Russian masters , Beethoven and Bach. His main recital programme of last year reveals his tastes and strengths vividly. Who else would dare perform Bach Preludes and Fugues followed by Chopin nocturnes and then Stravinsky's Petrushka transcription. It was clearly a triumph though. Critics fell over themselves in the search for superlatives. Not only in the Stravinsky where his sense of characterisation coupled with riveting technical command bowled his listeners over; but they found his unreconstructed, pianistic way with Bach to be profoundly compelling too.

Sulivan Sweetland - Grigory Sokolov And much, much more in the case of pianist grigory sokolov. Birmingham Post, 4 Feb 2002. RSNO/Weller Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No 1 http://www.sulivansweetland.co.uk/emmasweetland/html/grigor.html
Extractions: GRIGORY SOKOLOV Piano biography In the 40 years since the 16-year-old Grigory Sokolov was awarded first prize at the International Tchaikovsky Piano Competition in Moscow in 1966, the world has been blessed with what one American critic recently called " a kind of pianism, musicianship and artistry one thought had vanished forever ". Championed at a young age by Emil Gilels and a prominent figure on the Russian music scene since his early teens, Sokolov has gained an almost mythical status amongst music-lovers and pianophiles throughout the world. He is considered by many today to be the world's greatest living pianist. Ever since his first major piano recital in Leningrad at the age of 12, Sokolov has amazed everyone again and again with the enormous breadth of his repertoire and his huge, almost physical musical strength. Using little pedal, and thus superior finger-work, he draws from the concert grand an immense variety of sounds; he has an unlimited palette of colours, a spontaneous imagination and a magical control of line. His interpretations are poetic and highly individual, and his rhythmic freedom and elasticity of phrase are perhaps unequalled among pianists today. Times wrote after a recent 2004 recital: "Sokolov's fingers can do anything required of them: the clarity of articulation is total; the power of a crescendo seemingly infinite; the sheer strength at the forging point of mental observation and physical realisation breathtaking". It is not at all surprising that Russia's best-kept musical secret of the '60s and '70s has since earned an almost religious following in the West.

Extractions: The concert should have taken place in the Barbican Hall with its ideal conditions for recitals, or at least in the Queen Elizabeth Hall. In both venues one can create the intimacy Sokolov prefers with dimmed light around him. But it was also Sokolov himself who turned the recital into a farce. I felt like being confronted with a Golem, built from clay and given life by the great composers of the past to save them from a new generation of musical rapists. Instead, he turned on them - gentle, but extremely hungry, as it seemed and consumed their work entirely for his own purpose of self-glorification. Every artist has the right, to distil and to find different ways of expression as long as he serves the composer. In this case, I had a sleepless night. How far is one allowed, to identify oneself with a genius? One has to perceive him fully and then treat him with modesty, respect and honesty leaving ones ego behind, trusting the composers intention and lighting his flame by recreating his own spirit. The most convincing example may forever be Clara Haskil.
