Extractions: New York, NY - The keyboard duo of Valentina Lisitsa and Alexei Kuznetsoff makes its Weill Recital Hall debut on Tuesday, December 17, at 8 pm. The husband and wife pair will exhibit its fiery pianism with two works by Schubert: in G minor for piano duet, Op. 54, and Fantasy in F minor for piano duet, Op. 103. Additionally, Ms. Lisitsa, who is making her Weill Recital Hall solo debut, will interpret 24 Chopin Etudes from Op. 10 and Op. 25. Pianists Valentina Lisitsa and Alexei Kuznetsoff virtually exploded onto the American music scene in their formal United States debut in Chicago. This young piano-duo has garnered several competition prizes in its native Ukraine and continues to win critical acclaim in the United States as well. By the time Lisitsa and Kuznetsoff met at the Kiev Conservatory, they were both winners of numerous international, national, and local solo and chamber music competitions. They combined their talents and began working as a two-piano team with Ludmilla Tsvierko. In 1990, after only a few weeks of preparation, Lisitsa and Kuznetsoff captured first prize at the Ukrainian Chamber Music Competition. In 1991 the duo won first prize in the Third International Murray Dranoff Two Piano Competition. Shortly after their victory, Lisitsa and Kuznetsoff made their home in the United States and recently became American citizens.

Apelles - Artist Series Poetry valentina lisitsa and alexei kuznetsoff (don t let the names throw you. they remarried) played pieces specifically written for duo piano. They were good. http://www.graceandpeace.us/archives/2004/01/24/artist_series_poetry.html
Extractions: They were good. Very good. Even I could tell they were good. They got a standing ovation. And two encores. (but that's another story altogether) One of the things I liked was that they actually explained stuff about the piece and the composer before they performed itfor the less-than-perfectly-classicaly cultured such as myself, it made all the difference in the world once I understood a few things. At any rate, they included the poems Rachmaninoff claimed as his inspiration to his Fantasie-tableaux (Suite No. 1), Op 5 . They immediately caught and held my attention and interest, and when the piece was finally played after intermission I was properly moved and impressed and even visualized the reality the notes were to represent. The poems are magnificent.
