”...a great romantic spirit...“

Daily Telegraph London

”...Albert Mamriev played big music ... His playing of a Sonata by Haydn displayed an excellent sensibility to the needs of playing the Viennese classics. Prokofiev seemed to awaken his early Russian training“

The Herald, Glasgow

”...virtuos, leidenschaftlich und mit gefühlvoller Hingabe...“

Süddeutsche Zeitung

”...schloss man die Augen, so hätte man sich glatt in einem der großen Konzertsäle der Welt wiederfinden können ... und sich beim Öffnen gewundert, dass dort am Klavier nicht Vladimir Horowitz spielt... Albert Mamriev spielt nicht Klavier, er ist Musik!“

Actually, only one wrote it: Felix Mendelsohn wrote the Wedding March as part of the incidental music to A Midsummer Night's Dream. But then two noted pianistic pedagogues added to it: Franz Liszt and Vladimir Horowitz. And it became a thing of startling delights! Lots of notes everywhere, with scales and arpeggios in octaves running up and down the keyboard. Mr. Mamriev treated ist all as though it was his best friend…”
