RECORDINGS

RECITALS

"...Begelman is technically precise and full of fun, constantly feeding the ear delicious new colouristic and timbral details..."

Charlotte Gardner, GRAMOPHONE

 "...A dazzling ray of sunshine..."

Nicholas Anderson, BBC MUSIC

 "...the solo writing is both shamelessly virtuosic and constantly inventive, challenges Begelman tackles with aplomb before topping them off with a suitably extrovert cadenza..."
Tim Homfray, STRAD

"...Le soliste de ce délicieux programme, dont la richesse musicale est nourrie de multiples sentiments qui traduisent la personnalité aux facettes kaléidoscopiques de Vivaldi, est Boris Begelman...  Il apporte à ces concertos de Vivaldi une virtuosité lumineuse et chaleureuse, tout en veillant à traduire les nuances de ces « nouvelles perspectives » auxquelles le compositeur se consacre aux approches de la cinquantaine..."

Jean Lacroix, CRESCENDO MAGAZINE

Le nuove vie.jpg

"...Full, strong and vibrantly toned, technically superb and beautifully ornamented, these are fresh and immensely human-sounding…Dance movements energetically propulse forwards, never losing sight of the rhythmic metre even when giving it a playful tweak. Then there are the truly introvert movements..."
Charlotte Gardner, GRAMOPHONE

"...Begelman musiziert sehr originell und flexibel, mit relativ zügigen Tempi und doch ohne Show- Virtuosität, weil sich sein ernsthaftes Musizieren aus darbieterischer Tiefe speist..."

Remy Franck, PIZZICATO

"...El sonido de Begelman es más lírico que dramático, sin vibrato, limpio, un punto seco si se quiere, pero de una transparencia extraordinaria. Su arco es ágil, preciso e incisivo, y la claridad y distinción con la que hace sonar cada nota son asombrosas, incluso en los pasajes más rápidos y filigranescos..."

Pablo J. Vayón, SCHERZO

"...Begelman, che suona un violino Louis Moitessier del 1790 dalle sonorità intime e luminose, restituisce all’ascolto la familiarità colta e ricca di fantasia del Telemann da camera, senza mai cedere a compiacimenti narcisistici, anzi puntando su una lettura raccolta e sempre ben meditata che pone comunque sempre nel giusto risalto l’ornamentazione in stile italiano che caratterizza, qui ancor più che altrove, la produzione del Magdeburghese..."

Alessandro Cammarano, LE SALON MUSICAL

"...Boris Begelman offers highly accomplished readings of seven of Telemann’s sonatas for violin and basso continuo, four of which are claimed to be world premiere recordings. Fleet of finger and with sparing use of vibrato, he overcomes the challenging figuration with precision, shapes phrases expressively and captures the varying characters of Telemann’s ‘mixed style’ with skill and flair..."

Robin Stowell, THE STRAD

"...Er tritt mit einem kräftigen Ton und großen Gesten auf, strahlt ein starkes Selbstbewusstsein aus, beweist aber auch eine hohe Sensibilität für das lyrische Potential und die atmosphärischen Nuancen dieser Musik..."

Matthias Hengelbrock, FONO FORUM
