★★★★★
“Immensely powerful.” The Guardian
“Heavenly.” Gramophone
“Pavel Kolesnikov plays Bach’s Goldberg Variations impeccably.” Classics Today
“Kolesnikov the aesthete gives us ‘his’ Goldbergs, without distorting ‘the’ Goldbergs. And this contribution is as major as it is fascinating.” Le Devoir
“[Kolesnikov’s] approach here is magisterial, nearing the sublime in the Adagio of variation 25. There are countless great accounts of this music on harpsichord and piano, but this is required hearing.” The Sunday Times
“He can nuance his touch and dynamics in such a way that the slightest shift in sonority speaks volumes in terms of mood and narrative.” Interlude.hk
