Review By Patrick Rucker ,Fanfare,November 2012

The Polonaise from Onegin, easily the most familiar work on the disc, is given an extrovert reading that highlights its profusion of opulent pianistic detail without obscuring the overall structure and momentum of the dance. Dossin’s interpretation readily holds its own beside those older, famous ones of Cziffra and Ponti, and perhaps surpasses them in its unforced poise and characteristic voice. Dossin approaches Alyabyev’s The Nightingale, set by Liszt as a veritable mini-Russian rhapsody, with intelligence and finesse.

Review By Woo Soo Kang,American Record Guide,November 2012

Russian pianist Dossin is a virtuoso of the first order who performs these pieces with clarity, good pacing, and musical sense…an impressive showcase of Russian literature, performed with technical virtuosity and great sensitivity.

The quality of the recording is superb. In accordance with Liszt’s original intention with his transcriptions, Dossin’s performance of these inventive arrangements illuminates these Russian pieces. Much recommended. © 2012 American Record Guide Read complete review



Review By Ángel Carrascosa Almazán,Ritmo,September 2012

El volumen 35 de la obra completa para piano lisztiana de Naxos contiene piezas muy infrecuentes y de interés diverso, producto de los viajes de Liszt a Rusia en 1842, 1843 y 1847. La transcripción de la famosa Polonesa del Eugenio Oneguin tchaikovskiano resulta tal vez demasiado florida, como le ocurre a la Marcha de Ruslan y Ludmila de Glinka, al Galop de Bulhakov o a una latosa, cargante Tarantela de Cui (no sabemos si culpa del autor o del adaptador, o de ambos). Preciosas, en cambio, las adaptaciones de la (antes célebre) romanza El ruiseñor de Alabieff, la Canción gitana de P. P. Bulakhov y, sobre todo, de las canciones O! wenn es doch immer so bliebe y Der Asra del famoso pianista Anton Rubinstein, que fue uno de los rivales más destacados del siempre generoso Liszt. La anónima Mazurca compuesta por un amante de San Petersburgo y la Tarantela de Dargomisky son dos bonitas y agradables piezas de salón, mientras el Galop ruso de K. Bulhakov resulta bastante banal. El pianista brasileño Alexandre Dossin, triunfador máximo en el bonaerense Concurso Martha Argerich de 2003, posee una técnica sobresaliente y un buen sentido musical, evitando caer en efectismos gratuitos. Un disco interesante para seguir conociendo al casi inabarcable Liszt. © 2012 Ritmo
