In an article on TriestePrima, published on October 22, 2025, Dejan Bozovic wrote:

“The extremely delicate and light tonal colors created a charming, dreamlike, immaterial yet particularly enveloping and moving effect.

Exceptionally clear were the emotional storms, the quickened heartbeats of the soul, the fears and agitations, the dramatic tones that consistently reflected the intimacy of the musical discourse and the intrinsic nature of Chopin’s pianistic language.

The performance by Alexander Gadjiev was truly hypnotic. […]”
