His humility is as beautiful as his talent and himself. He has grownup and is so charming and open and his laughter is delightful.
This is not merely an interview, it is an honor. Malofeev is truly a phenomenon.
What a wonderful interview! Alexander's beautiful personality always shines in every interview. Incredible talent, kind and humble person. I'm so happy to be a fan. Also, the interviewer was very kind and asked very thoughtful questions. Enjoyable interview!!

How generous of him to share his time and knowledge with aspiring musicians !
I love Alexander Malofeev's passion. It is so beautiful. So beautiful.
Alexander will return once again to Buffalo in late November 2023. I’m looking forward to seeing him again.
So so talented, and I gotta say, quite beautiful.
Я рада услышать моего любимого артиста. Первое о ком я подумала 24.02.2022 было о Саше. Здорово, что у него хорошее настроение!
What a lovely, talented young man! I love to listen to his concerts. Congratulations Alexander!❤️
J'ai une admiration sans bornes pour ce pianiste, pour sa musique mais aussi pour sa personne.
Alexander; you are magnificent! Your playing is so relaxing her listen to for me. Your English is outstanding. Please keep the world entertained while keeping your good health . Thank You Alexander
Alex is a most wonderful pianist. Much of what I admire is his most modest manner. He shares the stage. post performance with his orchestra and conductor most endearingly. I wish him continued success, good health, and happiness. He deserves all the success.
This is such a wonderful interview by Alexander. Very insightful and informative. His first Buffalo Concert is now history and it was historic. Absolutely exquisite! JH

Merveilleux talent pour ce jeune homme de dix huit ans
Had I known I would have flown to Buffalo from Houston.
He is such a delight
What a delightful , beautifully humble young man. I just listened to his Rachmaninov 3 and it brought me to tears. I cannot but wish him everyting good and wonderful in his life, which will no doubt be incredibly illustrious and hopefully long-lived.
What a sweet young man, this musical prodigy, still living with his family with the piano taking up most of their largest room! And then the neighbors being mad for the last 10 years. Wow. Things aren’t easy for people in Russia, we have no idea. Best to his family and to all the people of Russia and Ukraine. Prayers to all who fall under the tyranny of evil dictators. May we all find peace, inner and outer.

Que maravilla escuchar a Alexander desde Argentina hoy que ganó un presidente libertario despues de 40 años regímenes de izquerda. Adoro a este pianista tan joven y talentoso. Lo sigo desde niño. Gracias Alexander por tu música❤
I agree with all who express their love and admiration for this phenomenal artist and human! I hope one day to hear him play in the concert hall. Following him on KZread him since a child has been a priveldge. A question: if Alexander finds the Prokofiev easy or not too hard(?!?) which concertos or pieces does he find difficult? It would be very interesting to know. Does anyone recall hearing Alexander say what he finds challenging to play?
Buffalo Toronto Public Media: Hello Buffalo, when is Alexander Malofeev coming back to play with your Orchestra ? And will you please announce it here and put the entire concert on youtube later? 🌷
Wonderful prodigy young man! It saddens me to see the date of this interview. The date Russia invaded Ukraine. Crying.
All Concerts canceled now, and he won’t be able to get out of Russia.

Sad for Russian artists. They suffer and have always suffered under the Russian communist regime. So sad. So very sad. This young man is phenomenal and truly gifted. He has a beautiful personality. God bless him. I feel for him. He spoke out against the Russian invasion of Ukraine and one of his concerts in the U.S. was cancelled because of this. Damn putin.

I think he now lives in Berlin ... and is an outspoken critic of the Russian invasion of Ukraine ... I have scheduled and missed him twice in the USA ... 2 years ago in Ravinia, cancelled due to Covid and this last March in San Francisco when a kidney stone resulted in my forced cancellation ... I AM going to Buffalo in November 2023 to see him, most definitely ... driving 10 hours one way.
The Golden Boy. SUch a performer. Amazing talent. Do people know this young fellow has relatives in Ukraine. Such a conflict. Listen to him as an artist so talented, Keep politics away from art.

Nice discussion of his play style and history in music. When was this filmed? Seems odd to not have any mention of the Ukraine invasion's by Russia, unless it was decided not to mention it by rules before the interview. Also odd that he refences the influence of the Soviet Union, instead of just Russia, given his young age. I suppose that is the narrative that all his teachers and the older generation have, to use it interchangeably.

Il n’était pas né que déjà Poutine était installé, si vous suivez son parcours , il ne passe sont temps qu’à travailler et même s’il a pu un moment où un autre croiser professionnellement des proches du pouvoir( ce qui est le cas de tous les grands artistes, même dans nos magnifiques démocraties )ses récentes déclarations sont sans ambiguïté, et il est fort probable qu’il ne puisse pas rentrer dans son pays avant longtemps. Vous savez certainement des choses que je ne connais pas! Mais le traiter de " petite charogne " ne rendra pas le sort des Ukrainiens plus doux malheureusement.

@@brunoguitteny5862 Truth is , re Danial B , the Russian people are not our enemies nor are the Ukranians for that matter . Leaders take our sons off to war while civilians as always become the pawns in any political game . I am a pacifist so I don't support war as a way to settle our differences . So I do not agree with Danial B either as polarizing sides into good and evil does not solve our human condition. We all have a shadow side which we all need to take note off . Projecting our shadow onto a person or group solves nothing to be honest . We are all brothers and sisters on this very small planet . Perhaps, we the people , need to remind our leaders of such. Further such reminders might lead to the people choosing wise leaders on all sides . Otherwise we will wipe each other off the face of this planet by our technology which has no respect for our human condition.
