“Wojciech Majewski plays Scriabin” – fragments of selected reviews

“Wojciech Majewski gra Skriabina” [Wojciech Majewski plays Scriabin] – fragments of selected reviews:
…There aren’t many Polish albums with Scriabin’s compositions. Hence, the most recent album of Wojciech Majewski is quite an innovation whose recording was justified and necessary.(…). The artist reveals a very pianistic approach customized to each piece of music and the time it was composed. In the first miniatures the playing is romantic, gentle, sometimes bordering on sweet, in the following ones – sharper, more determined. The sound becomes shorter and the revealed emotions – more exuberant, untamed or even dark, The variety of expression demonstrated by the pianist is admirable indeed. When it comes to the technical side of his performance, Majewski also comes out victorious and does a great job with the music which seems very challenging for a pianist in technical terms .(…). It may be the best Polish album with Scriabin’s music so far!
Łukasz Kaczmarek – Muzyka 21
A sixteen-year-old student of a music school watched on TV the famous concert of Vladimir Horowitz in Moscow (1986). He heard a couple of Scriabin’s etudes and he was enchanted. He started studying the composer’s biography, ideas and work and he has been including Scriabin’s music for piano solo into his repertoire. (…) Open-mindedness is what Wojciech Majewski – an open-minded artist – appreciates in Scriabin and his work. Openness to the beauty of melodies and harmonic experiments, to soulfullness and mysticism, sound timbre and architecture of each piece of music… Majewski brings out full potential of that music’s form and content. His interpretations emanate both bold virtuosity and alluring subtlety, both dynamism and reflection. The selected thirty-four miniatures (mostly preludes, mazurkas and etudes) follow the chronological order of their creation to tell the story of Scriabin’s journey (interrupted by his death) through the mystery of life and art. Wojciech Majewski is also the producer of that perfectly recorded album.

…the same goes for Alexander Scriabin’s music which, under the fingertips of a great pianist – Wojciech Majewski – reveals to us the entire beauty of what the composer left us.(…). 34 miniatures, which include i.a. preludes, mazurkas, etudes, poems arranged in a chronological order – from „Canon” (1883) composed by Scriabin when he was a child to his last „5 Preludes op.74” from 1914 – show us both the evolution of the Russian composer’s style and the skills of the soloist, as Scriabin’s music for piano solo requires top skills from a pianist. Majewski demonstrates both his craft and mental maturity which goes (much) beyond the perception of an average music lover. Majewski makes Scriabin not only less intimidating, but also more beautiful!
