BIOGRAPHY
Albert Mamriev ist aufgrund seines opulenten Klangempfindens, dem eine
blendende Technik zur Seite steht, der ideale Interpret für die
auslandenden Wagner Transkriptionen eines Franz Liszt.
Robert Nemecek - „Piano News“
Erstaunlich aber ist es, dass Mamriev nicht allein hochvirtuos spielt,
sondern auch interpretiert. Hatte Liszt die Wagner’schen Sätze
verändert, erweitert, paraphrasiert und über sie fantasiert, so führt
uns Mamriev mit Hilfe Bearbeiters ins Herz der Musik, in der sie erst
zu tönen beginnt.
Frank Piontek - „Nordbayrischer Kurier“, Bayreuth
Mamriev: technica infallibile… Sono state evocate ampiezze sonore,
luminosita lacustri, accenni di danza, forti accenti, il tutto frutto
di una scrittura efficace che e servita ad esaltare il pianismo
qualificator di Albert Mamriev. Effetti accompagnati da una musicalita
che ha Saputo sfruttare alternanze drammatiche, imperative, delicate,
serene e talvolta spiritode.
Mario Petrucco – „Il Monferrato
