Remarkably rich and full tone quality (which cannot be adequately described) together with a very strong, consistent rhythmic impulse and an almost incredible legato

An extraordinary artist, a musician of the
masterly order, of great physical and intellectual
power, an unsurpassable performer

Virtuosos are plenty, tonalists are comparatively few.
Happily we have one here. If fireworks are called for
Mr Spivakovsky very obviously can provide them. What is more, in doing so he is able not only to play the notes but to play the music as well ... Mr Spivakovsky has a command of
piano tone that borders on the remarkable

Mastery of classic models plus individual
dynamic freedom – a blending of the best from
the old school of piano playing and the new

Beauty of tone and variety of colour and dynamics … fine sculptural sense and appreciation of climactic values … intellectuality as well as musicality

Spivakovsky is a rare genius. The audience was
spellbound by his playing … such precision, perfection and poignancy. To say that his technique is out of this world is putting it tritely. His playing is majestic

Back in Russia when I was four years old, my mother
dragged me through snowdrifts twenty feet deep to hear an outstanding prodigy. YOU were that prodigy

Profound admiration and affection

Whether Aeolian harp or thundering Horseman of the Apocalypse, the music finds Spivakovsky in splendid control of his arsenal of keyboard effects, a master of his palette

My new friend and great artist Jascha Spivakovsky: sincere admiration and great desire to play with him a Brahms Concerto

I cannot thank you enough ... I cannot thank you enough!

My very good friend, the great pianist Jascha Spivakovsky

Conducting Jascha Spivakovsky was a great experience
