 Valéry Afanassiev Piano Recital / Concert Hall ATM, ART TOWER MITO
Afanassiev, now a Belgian citizen but living in France, is the kind of pianist who challenges us to no end, stirring up both frenzy and puzzlement.
With the 150th anniversary of Chopin's death to be marked this year, Afanassiev has selected 11 mazurkas (Polish folk dances) -- said to be the "diary of Chopin's heart."

Valery Afanassiev, Schriftsteller, Philosoph und Musiker, ist ein vollkommener Künstler.
Herr Alberts hat einfach nicht erkannt, um was es in dieser Interpretation Afanassievs geht: Er hat Recht, es ist nichts vom „Beethovenschen Pathos“ zu finden, und „nichts von der Dämonie des Anfangs“.
Afanassiev stellt sie nur nicht — wie sonst üblich — in den Dienst des subjektiven Ausdrucks — das Subjektiv-Interpretierende Afanassievs besteht bloß darin, Melodien herauszuarbeiten —, sondern des »objektiven« Klangs.

Listen to the rigidly-held deliberation in the Third Concerto's opening ritornello, the orchestra's listless phrasing in the slow movement, and solo winds that wilt like wallflowers when they should be active and conversational (the oboe in the Rondo, for instance).
Valery Afanassiev's cumbrous pianism represents the Teutonic Beethoven school at its pounding nadir, as the first-movement cadenza and much of the Rondo bear out.
Afanassiev's rhythmic gear-shifts in the Emperor Concerto's unaccompanied piano solos serve no structural, rhetorical, or expressive purpose other than to be "different".
