Recital in Paris
Tonight Denis Matsuev is giving a recital in Paris, in Theatre de
Champs Elysees. The programme of the concert consists of Schumann,
Kinderszenen and Carnival, Grieg, Poetic Tone-Pictures and Sonata
E-minor and Liszt, Mephisto Waltz.
“Pour le jeu abyssal de Matsuev, qui sert ces Kinderszenen de Schumann
(enregistrées en live il y a deux ans au Carnegie Hall) avec une
surprenante mais séduisante liberté de ton et d'interprétation,
n'hésitant pas à l'amener, parfois, vers des horizons symphoniques,”-
says “Le Figaro” in anticipation of the concert.

From Zurich to Perm
My previous monologue ended with my arrival to Moscow where I played concert at the Philharmonic and then flew to Zurich.In the first airing of my video-blog I mentioned that I will make a very swift trip – so it happened! The next morning I was rehearsing Rachmaninov’s Third Concerto with V. Gergiev and The Zurich opera Orchestra. The main concern was that this orchestra never played this concerto, or played it very long ago. And this concert is rather an orchestra part, almost a symphony, than a usual accompaniment to the soloist. V. Gergiev arrived one day ahead of me and rehearsed with the orchestra without a soloist.

Instead of an interview
Giving interviews I often realize that a lot does not fit into an interview format and is left unsaid. Now I want to share with you my thoughts accumulated from the beginning of this year, which started with my personal subscription seasonal concert in Moscow and my USA Tour.
I’m away...
...making a new record. Details are kept secret, I’ll tell you everything a bit later ;)Sad news
Nikolay Pavlovich Krivomazov, a close friend of mine and one of the most outstanding representatives of the Soviet and the Russian press, passed away. I got acquainted with him long ago, when I went to school, to the secondary school no.1 in Irkutsk, together with his children Misha and Jenya. Nikolay Pavlovich Krivomazov was a journalist of a world scale. I learnt a lot from him, we were close friends for a long time, we lived through hard times together, through the beginning of 1990s, a terrible period in every respect. Nikolay Pavlovich’s decease is a great loss and a hard blow for everyone who knew him. Last year, which seems so close, he wrote an article about me for “Komsomolskaya Pravda”…Videoblog #6. Asian tour.
