[Interview] Alexander Malofeev
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 лют 2019
- Alexander Malofeev is a young Russian pianist, mostly famous with his outstanding appearance at the 8th International Tchaikovsky Competition for young musicians (2014), where he won the 1st Prize and attained the overall recognition.
He played for the first time in France on 31 January 2019 at the Auditorium of the Fondation Louis Vuitton.

«Alexander Malofeev manifests the piano mastery of the new millennium in itself.» (Il Giornale). «The latest phenomenon of the Russian piano school...» (Corriere della Sera).
Such a warm response in the Italian media the debut concert of Alexander Malofeev at La Scala rose. «Russian genius» (Corriere della Sera) performed with maestro Valery Gergiev the first Tchaikovsky piano concerto.
«In contrast to what could be expected of a youngster aged 15, he demonstrated not only high technical accuracy but also an incredible maturity. Crystal clear sounds, perfectly balanced revealed the exceptional skill in playing…» (Amadeus) - On March 6, 2017 Alexander Malofeev opened the 30th anniversary concert of the famous Meesterpianisten serie in the Concertgebouw, Amsterdam.
He seems very modest and humble despite his superlative talents with the piano. Wishing him every success for the future.
I love my son!
@Jacques Proulx Not to mention China, Japan, Korea etc...they produce products like Nike :-)
@Jacques Proulx The United States did give us Van Cliburn and Emanuel Ax.
@Jacques Proulx Van Cliburn was pretty good, to name but one American. And Horowitz himself did most of his best work in America. We don't lack for the talent. My fear is that, in the electronic age, more and more people will turn to that rather than actual performances by living, breathing, human beings. Thus, performers like the already great Alexander Malofeev will sink into obscurity as their expertise sadly becomes superannuated.
@@thomasthompson6378 "pretty good". sure.
This young man is a gift to everyone who loves music.
hey do you know what music is he playing in the start?
Lourenço Lopes it is the pine forest from the nutcracker or something like that lol
“To improve myself...” a very wise young man.
I am 78 and must live years longer to hear Alexander as he progresses in sharing his wonderful art with the world! Thank you Alexander!
Thank you UA-cam too, as I would never have discovered him otherwise.
D R j'm as you 78 but j hope less than you ; it's very much 78 IoI
I'm another 78 who wishes to stick around to see the great success this wonderful boy well deserves.
I think I found myself a pianist whose concerts I will be looking to attend throughout my life.
My feeling, exactly.
On practicing for 10-12 hours: “For me, it isn’t just a way to improve my skills, or a routine, for me it’s a chance to think.” This is devotion, this is a gift. Honestly, how many 15 year old Americans can say this? What a special, special gift. I hope he is developing a passion for Bach and Mozart, for that is where a pianist finds his interpretative self......
Check out how he plays Tchaikovsky's The Seasons. I so enjoy how he plays the sensitive and lyrical parts. We already know he can play the heavies. I think some people can't see beyond that consummate technical ability, to find the amazing range and depth he has. He has it in spades.
Alexander is my favourite pianist, and it is lovely to hear him speak about his art. A charming and supremely talented young man.
I feel so blessed watching and listening to the performances of this young man, Alexander Malofeev. i have great respect and admiration for him and i thank you tube for bringing to us through the sponsors a collection of his performances by great Russian Composers. Truly this pianist reflects the genius of his race, an indomitably lovable figure of his generation .
This guy is just wonderful. Nice to see Russia is still turning out the greatest talent.
But Obama said, "What has Russia ever produced?" LOL
First Trifonov, now him
the best of humanity.
I wish very much that there would be more interviews with Alexander Malofeev. I'm thankful that this one is in English for those of us that do not know Russian. God bless him!
You are quite in the line of Russian greats. They are holding open the door for you with great welcome.
Astonishing depth for someone so young. Cannot wait to watch his career unfold.
My thoughts exactly! And I love it -- he can practice 12 hours if he doesn't have CONCERTS OR SCHOOL !
His gifts are already manifest. One more year on the concert stage and he will be legend..I daresay, he's light years ahead of the class of his generation.....
@@j.6770 ❤😂
He is so talented, humble, soft spoken..I’m in awe!! I wish him all the best in his future career ❣️
Truly remarkable young man. He appears introspective and mature beyond his young age. He uses his superb talent to speak to the entire world
Alexander is such a beautiful looking young man which enhances his music and talent to another degree. Isn't creation wonderful? English speaking as well as a second language. Such talent.
"It's just you and the audience, just your own feelings."
Exactly, Alex, and please don't ever let judges or anything else come between you and your audience!
K
@Keith Williams Yes! Amen to that.

Господь, да благослови дитя Твоё, МАЛОФЕЕВА Александра, по милости Твоей,усмотри во всех начинаниях ТВОИХ, Боже, сохрани и помилуй нас, грешных, по Воле Твоей, защиту дай нам Твою. Отец, Сын и Святой Дух, аминь.
We understand Russian’s sensibility better thanks to your perception during the concert. I am sure that the great composers are very proud from where they are or see you, even from another dimension. What you play is the way to play. Tout est juste. Intention, énergie, finesse, excellente interprétation. Vous traduisez parfaitement l’âme du compositeur. Vous sentez la façon dont il aurait souhaité que l’on interprète son œuvre.
You are the hands of the composer. Exactly, precisely, spiritually. Great presence, great intensity. As you say, and I agree, there is you and the audience only during these moments. C’est vibrant, grandiose. Vous êtes un très grand musicien Monsieur Malofeev. 🌹🌹🌹👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌹🌹🌹
Genius but very down to earth, grounded for his young age. Speaks very good English. Very good role model for youth.
humble , respectful, and talanted.
What an amazing young man. So talented, so gifted...not to discount all the thousands of hours he's worked hard at becoming one of the very best pianists ever. He's so beautifully humble...God bless him.
the Russian school has always produces great pianists, and A.Malofeev is obviously one of them
Браво, Александр ! Мы все тебя любим !
What sends chills up my spine is that he is still at the very beginning of his career. He will be a household name for sure. A great pianist.
Im a dude but damn this guy's good looking, speaks English pretty good as a foreigner even for his age, very intelligent and kind, also has an outstanding talent... could he be one of the world's iconic human beings?
Most Europeans learn English at school, and it's commonplace for young people to speak it well.
It seems to me that Americans spend their lives hearing that they live in the greatest country on earth (untrue, sadly for them) and become ethnocentric in the extreme.
What he has accomplished since 2001?! born, learned an instrument, and is playing the most difficult pieces for piano -- from memory, and with great talent, confidence, and humility. He is already on the list of great performers, in my estimation. He's utterly charming.
These performances would be amazing from a pianist of any age. The fact that they come from someone who is not yet 20 is extraordinary. Alexander, I hope you continue to play and develop your skills - but don't forget to explore other avenues of life. It will help you as well as your music.
I've loved him since we were both kids. And I feel very proud of his success. He will always be one of my favourite pianists. He is just so great.
A very gifted and humble young man> A joy to hear him speak and play
A beautiful, humble, supremely talented young man. His parents must be so proud!
My best wishes for a fulfilling career.
Very nice kid, and also fantastic pianist. Wishing him all the success in the future. Hope to see you playing concerts in Southern California. Also excellent command of English. Congratulations!
Could we be witnessing the evolution of possibly the greatest pianist of our time? I am astounded and filled with anticipation for the coming years as he grows into a man.
I love you, Alexander. I went to Russia before you were born. You come from a beautiful country with a deep and interesting history? Your people are very nice there. They would give us flowers because we were strangers and we admired them.I want you to know you bring me great joy with your passionate playing. I have a son about your age. I am 69 years old. I wish I had more years to listen to you but I know the future will be blessed by your art. My two favorite pieces you play are the Grieg Piano Concerto and the Paganini Variations, but you play everything well. Bless you and stay healthy, my young friend. And be good to yourself.
So humble and so talented.
January 4th 2020: Hello Alex: you speak English so you can read what a gift of love and joy you are to this troubled world. Thank you Alexander from Holland-europe.
Emily Hutjes. The same from England 2nd June 2020. You are a light in this sad world of pandemic virus lockdown.
Alexander Malofeev is innately gifted.
Emily Hutjes what a thoughtful remark.
Hij is geweldig, niet waar? Echt een kunstenaar.
What a humble, sincere young fellow. How dedicated to this music and instrument. 'I want to be good enough to be part of this lign...' Dear boy, You are already part of that line. It is now your turn to lead the way.
Very humble person, for his big talent. Very good people has a very good heart!!!
Very humble. Already in league of his own. Shouldn't compate to other greats coz he already is great.
As articulate in speech as he is a virtuoso on the keyboard. A brilliant talent and a true world citizen!
I have recently discovered this amazing talent and Wow! He is such a wonderful pianist, so gifted technically - he clearly puts in the hours of practice and dedication to his art - and also plays with such emotion and passion (as only Russians can), he is a joy to watch. I've just watched his Paris Recital on DVD for which he can be seen practising for and performing - almost 2 solid hours of playing - and was moved to tears. Such a beautiful young man and human being. I will be following his career. Bravo!!
Superb in every way, both as an amazingly gifted musician and as a sensitive, reflective and mature human being. But we want to see him in the UK!
Alexander is one of the young russian pianist who will intimidate asians on future competetions. I'll always root for you!
Well he did a hell of a job at TCH16...poor kid.
MorbidManMusic intimidation for who? He didn’t even passed the 1st round
Me too, Enrico. Enough with the Asian pianists - little mechanical machine with little or no understanding of what they are actually playing. There are exceptions, of course among player and conductors (Uchida, Watanabe, Asahina, Yo-Yo Ma) but the pletora of CD stars we are seeing these days is simply too much.
@@TheGreatPerahia well, conductors and orchestras who played with Lang Lang are fully at the opposite of your comments, they adored playing with Lang Lang, and this is visible in every video we have. Sure that sometimes he is excessive and lacks taste - in SOME pieces, but most often he is electrising and his concerts finish with 10 stands up. People at Champs-Elysee, Carnegie Hall etc are not ignorant, they saw a lot of pianists coming.
As for the stereotypes you push about chinese, is not about money but culture, they are from a different culture. Lang Lang probably knows 1000 times more about our culture than you know about his, you get my point.
So is not easy for them, but I suspect the next century to be musically asian dominated. Sure some are mechanic, but so are many westerners, is just that for every western pianist there are 100 chinese pianists.
@@Paroles_et_Musique But blonds have more fun!!!
You will be among the greatest, Alexander Malofeev.
Alexander is a very modest person about his great gift for the piano. He already has great technical command and intellectual grasp of pianism at its highest levels. It is so refreshing to hear him act as if what he has accomplished is just "business as usual." No, Alexander! You already have conquered what most pianists have taken years to achieve. Nothing seems to be too difficult for you and your modesty will lead you to accomplish even more.
To play the Rach 3rd as well as you do at the age of 15 is unbelievable. None of the trappings of success will deter you from "reaching for the stars." Ah, to be so young and to have accomplished so much.
Many thanks to your parents who knew who you were and put you in the right hands to start your "journey to the stars."
Yes, Russia needs to take a bow too because as a country who recognizes artistic achievement of its youth (unlike America who only recognizes athletic achievement), you reach into homes and offer education to their artistic youth.
Art will never die in Russia, but I do see death of classical music in America's future. The government is "tone-deaf" about art and education.
The alcohol and drug problem in America would not happen if we reached into the homes of our American families and offered intellectual advancement to our youth.
Right now, intellectual kids are looking for the equivalent to what is offered for our athletic youth.
As long as art and intellectualism is not recognized by our government, something else will "fill the vacuum." Drugs and alcohol are a faux choice and the only choice for kids at risk.
Unfortunately, great basketball players are not going to "save the world." Artists have something that many athletes do not have: intelligence. They can save the world!
Absolutelly agree !!! 🙌
To my eyes & ears , he is already a legend !!! Beautiful !!!👍💜💜💜🎹🥁🎤🎶🎵💖💕💞
How could this get a thumbs down he's brilliant
Jack asses and nit pickers! Damn shame! Should be zero thumbs down!
All those thumbs down come from envious and jealous people
Because in the end of the day a musician has his own interpretation of a musical piece. Some people simply don't like the interpretation of the piece. Which I can understand. Maybe that could be a reason to give a thumbs down. :)
@Straight Razor Daddy bruh Russians Are Asian Too
They really love their kids
Super talented. Well educated, so humble and super sweet!
What an intelligent young man and such humility! And his talent is beyond comparison!! Wonderful young man!!
"I really love to sleep before a performance to reboot myself." AMEN to that brother.
Alexander, you make us feel proud of you as a Russian talented musician!!
What a wonderful young man, and what an incredible performance artist. Thank you for this intimate, yet revealing introduction to this humble musician.
Dear Alexander - You bring joy to all our hearts.. Your humility is very touching! Thank you so much for sharing your gift , your music with the entire world! Bravo!
Such a joyful discovery, what a remarkable young man. The future of classical piano performance is graced by his astounding talent. All the best in the future Maestro.
Меня берет гордость за нашу молодёжь, которая вопреки этому ужасному строю способна благодаря родителям и учителям жить в атмосфере творчества. Вы нам нужны как воздух, ребята. Не уезжайте, учите других детей. Вы наше сокровище.
Уедет
I’m kind of inspired in a way. Even though he spends so much time in his life practicing he is such a humble and wholesome guy. He has such a great touch on the piano. I’m motivated to practice so that I can play the pieces he does some day.
What astounds me is that he knows so many long pieces without having to read from a musical score. His memory seems superhuman. Amazing!!
With difficult music, by the time you have a piece fully prepared, it's in your memory permanently.
I feel certain that he was born hearing this music (the greats) and from birth heard their works in his home regularly. Music from the classical period is in his DNA.
Young man, I'm sure your dream of being a part of the lineage of the great Russian pianists you mention will be realized.
YES , this SWEET HUMBLENESS , SO TRANSPARENT , ACCOMPAIGNING HIS SUPERB TALENT . MAGICAL .
Very talented handsome young man.
Je lui souhaite de rester passionné par la musique, jouer du piano avec plaisir et jouissance, de trouver toujours de bons et heureux moments en maîtrisant une nouvelle oeuvre classique. Que la joie ne le quitte pas, que la passion ne se transforme jamais en travail ou routine. Que son potentiel créatif devienne de plus en plus original, individuel. Qu'il cherche et trouve de nouveaux horizons et possibilités de se développer. Et en fin, qu'il soit heureux!
Alexander. You are the best! Love seeing you play!
English as a second or a third language is difficult, but you express it superbly. Bravo.
С большим интересом давно наблюдаю за сашей.невероятно талантливый и приятный во всех отношениях молодой человек.от всей души желаю,чтобы все в его жизни было хорошо.
What an amazing and gifted young man ❤️
he is such a brilliant pianist,it can distinctly be seen that piano is involved in his life and it’s a passion for him.he’s really successful and he will be.
Of the many things I am grateful for experiencing in my time on Earth, the moon landing and the solar eclipse of 2018, Alexander Malofeev's growth as an artist ranks among the most awesome. I only hope I live long enough to witness his apotheosis as one of the greatest pianist who ever lived! As someone wrote elsewhere, this is God showing off!
All my life, I regretted not having been born when classical music was at its peak--until now. I feel so blessed to be alive to hear this pianist.
Классное выступление!!! 2021 ГОД БРАВО ВСЕМ ВАМ 🍒❤️♥️👍👍🔔🔔🏖️🌎🌏🌐🌍🌄🏙️🗼🌅🗼🗼🗼👍👍👍👍🥰⛲🍇🍊🍋😇🇨🇳
Best of luck! Very proud of you!
Желаем величайших успехов! Ваш талант ОГРОМЕН!!!
Bravo‼️Bravo ‼️
Absolutely great..
Just came from his concert in Istanbul this evening. Dreamy.
I CAN NEVER FORGET this CONCERT . HIS GENIALITY is in ALL ASPECTS EXPECTED from a CLASSICAL MUSICIAN . BESSEDS HIS MATURUTY , UNEXPECTED .
Stumbled across his UA-cam channel and website and listened and watched in awe into the wee hours of the morning.
I have no words...💙💙💙
He is so talented... Cute ...
I swear he is a dream man for every person, male and female. Even I would marry him!
That's gay bro cmon .. xD

Yeahs 😍🥰

Maaaan, this kid is so profound! Love it!
a great balance between talent, hardwork, and passion.
What a beautiful gift you are blessed with. Take it and Fly High....Love it and share it with the world
I just got the DVD of this recital and it's marvelous. My house is filled with glorious sound.
What a gifted an charismatic young man! Best wishes for his career!!
A great pianist and excellent English from a talented and very modest young man. I would love to see him in the UK.
Alexander. You are so deeply involved with your playing. How interesting to learn that you use music to find yourself as well as learning to play and perform. Surely you are good enough to stand with Horowitz and the great performers of the Russian classics. You are god Alexander with time you will be great. You have a feeling for the music, you have a part of it within you. You are surely going to be in the line of greats. All the best wishes for you. May success be with you through all your years.
What a beautiful new joy in my life!
Wow! Wow! Alexander Malofeev epitomizes extraordinary talent! In such a beautiful human being and personality. I'm a fan.
I wish the best for him in the future, dream big,get big, he has definitely the potential to grow even more and to become a greater pianist.
Alexander 'the Great' indeed!... He is Music and Perfection personified.
You're very humble Sir Alexander Malofeev..you can never imagine how incredibly amazing you are..the greatest pianist of this generation ❤️
Lucky Russia! What a brilliant, charming young artist!
Wow! Never heard Alex speak in English before, and the Slavic accent is very pleasing.
Just last year I was searching for La Campanella performance. Then BOOOM! There goes Alex. The BOOM was almost literal it blew me with his awesome performance. And yeah! he's a gift to mankind! My only wish is, Alex should put more contents on his UA-cam chanel. Thanks for this video, by the way.
You're quite right about wanting to see more of his performances. Quite clearly, he's mastered the entire repertoire, so there's no reason this couldn't happen.
I have never heard S Rach's #3 played any better. Probably better than Rachmaninoff himself. Breath taking.
Not only an exceptionally talented pianist, Alexander you are a modest, clever, bright young man. I wish you all success in the future. You should continue to engage and show your passion to your audiences and fans. You have a rare gift and you must always remember to enjoy your gift personally. Bravo young man! I hope to attend one of your performances soon.
E Daniel: Alex,I feel a great emotion listening to you talking so,in a modest,kind, humble way.Simply you are marvellous.As usual I wish you the best.Congratulations.
Makes me glad to be human.
You are already quite definitely in the line of great Russian pianists: you don't need to hope that you will be one day in the future.
Браво Александр Малофеев!!!!,Горжусь русским пианистом!!!Хотелось на русском услышать о себе
Alexander, you are a great pianist, a great artist
I wish to you a large and brilliant future
Amazing!! unfortunately, you will always have people who push that thumb down button... no matter how good you are. most of the time its just people how are jealous and that has nothing to do with you or your playing! Just don't pay to much attention to that and keep going! ;)
what is the piece he playing at the beginning called?
Foundation Louis Vuitton happy 2020 , Alexander Malofeev is one talent virtuoso , hear young musician touch a music for your heart and tecnica with precision and suavity ,reveal o lovely create for high Genios ,is beauty news ,Alexander have a patreon for your career.is awesome ..
Il est exceptionnel ❤️🙏🏼
When he plays i feel it like Orchestra, s perfomance.Great person. Im proud really that he iS ours, Russian.
You are a great pianist! Really really great pianista. Enjoy every day and moment.
You bring so much wonder, joy and amazement to this world - you will indeed meet and likely surpass the achievements of your genius predecessors Prokofiev and Rachmaninoff (to name just two!) 👏👏
Surpass them as a composer or player?
@@dylanr4854 Meet and likely pass - both! (My humble opinion)
R Garlin Oh, has he actually composed some pieces?
@@dylanr4854 I don't think he has yet - but I'm certain he will as he gets older. In case you didn't already know his website (sorry, if you do) - you can check here periodically, as I do:
www.alexander-malofeev.com/index-gb
You have such a beautiful, God-given talent!
God doesn’t exist, he achieved this talent by practicing and dedicating himself to his art.
12 hours/day of practice doesn’t hurt.
I think both can be true. God/ Nature gives us talent and we develop those abilities through our practice and loving labors. Life is a symphony, and our spirits all work together to produce a greater harmony.
