More recently Evgenia Startseva has been partnering the renowned violinist Maxim Vengerov. They appeared together at the televised Classical Brit Awards in London May 2003 and gave an extensive and highly acclaimed recital tour across Europe and the USA in programmes which included Brahms’ three violin sonatas. She was described by reviewers as outstanding, super-sensitive, remarkably powerful, having a magnetic empathy and sensitive to nuance and the music’s songlike qualities. |

SHOSTAKOVICH
– Preludes Op. 34 “[The 26 year-old]
Shostakovich had already found his unique voice when he wrote these
twenty-four miniatures . . . This cycle is one of the exceptional
works of the young Prokofiev, where that ‘unencouraged’ lyricism
finds its wonderful space together with brave harmonic and textural
experiments . . . I find pairing these two particular cycles, where
each miniature has been allowed the freedom to find its own shape and
language, reveals essentially how very different these contemporaries
are.” |
“Evgenia Startseva, internationally renowned as Maxim Vengerov’s Duo partner, opened her treasure chest of multifaceted sentiments promptly with the contemplative notes of Nikolai Medtner’s Sonata Reminiscenza from “Forgotten Melodies” (Op.38, No.1), transforming these emotions into sound with her subtle nuance of touch. Startseva’s lyrical talent bloomed even more in Shostakovich’s Preludes Op.34. These most leanly arranged and focussed short pieces demand plausible characterisations, in which Startseva succeeded eminently, on the one hand with a tender tone, supple fluidity, a flexible differentiation of the individual voices, but also with wit, tongue-in-cheek piquancy and dance-like verve on the other hand…A superior and singular achievement” Saarbrücker Zeitung 15.01.2005
"With Evgenia Startseva at the piano one penetrates into the rich thematic world of the musician of Hamburg (Brahms), of whom she draws a musical portrait with great expressive efficacy." L'Unione Sarda
"....Sensitive to nuance and the music's songlike qualities" The Independent
