5.0 out of 5 stars Miracle Music 29 Jan 2010
By Beverly A. Crandall - Published on Amazon.com

I would walk over coals to hear Alexander Romanovsky, and this CD is a marvel. All of Rachmaninoff's fire, passion, tenderness and beauty are brought to life here, with flawless phrasing and extraordinary power. Mr. Romanovsky makes both the Corelli Variations and the Etudes Tableaux (op. 39) sound easy. They are not! (I have studied this music time and again over the years.) For comparison, Olga Kern, John Browning, Van Cliburn and others have recorded many of these works with superb results, but Mr. Romanovsky's performance is the Matterhorn. Please please someone ask him to record the Sonata No. 2, and team up with another pianist to play Rachmaninoff's last work, the Symphonic Variations! I do not know if there is a heaven, but if there is, and Sergei can hear this CD, he will be smiling.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent program played by a virtuoso 25 April 2010
By pm444 - Published on Amazon.com

First of all, the program itself is a pleasure from beginning to end. I didn't own either of these selections and am enjoying getting to know them. The "Etudes-Tableaux" are reminiscent of brief solo passages from a Rachmaninov piano concerto, followed by a series of very short variations on a theme by Corelli. Second, where has Decca been hiding Alexander Romanovsky and why haven't we heard more from this extremely gifted young pianist? He plays with great virtuosity and a strong feeling for Rachmaninov's music, and one cannot help wondering what he'd be able to do if he were to begin tackling Rachmaninov's piano concertos. I'm surprised that this CD is still available in the US only as an import, and I cannot understand why Decca hasn't done more to promote Romanovsky here. At least this CD is now available at a more reasonable price than it was when I bought it, so the cost is no longer an obstacle to adding it to your collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars The vibrant rise of this flaming virtuosi! 2 Oct 2011
By Hiram Gomez Pardo - Published on Amazon.com
This week. Caracas was exceptional witness of this next legend of the piano. The high caliber pianism of Alexander Romanovsky is indubitable. But there's srtill more; he owns that inner fire, untamed passion, requested flair, electryfying vitality, serene lyricism, and sheer introspection to play any piece of the huge pianistic repertoire.

This album is a conclusive evidence of his genius. With only 27 springs, he has earned wide fame and hailed by many audiences around the world.

The Rachmaninoff 3rd Piano Concerto was played by him yesterday evening and I really hope it had been released for CD format, because we are talking about one of the battlehorses of the piano. He undertook and played all the original cadenzas of this difficult score.

Bravo for this new promise of the noblest of the instruments.
