By Vera Pavlova, translated by Andrey Kneller
A little music and some ice,
A little hope, a little sun…
Ice – where the sleeping water lies
and dreams of skaters on the run.
They, hand in hand, are moving fast,
without sorrows to recall,
and, in the decade that has passed
together, they have yet to fall. ... See MoreSee Less

Sabine Weyer just released her new album with works by Nicolai Miaskovsky Nicolas Bacri (ARS Produktion). Watch her performance and statement about the music of Miaskovsky at the Great Hall of the Tchaikowsky Hall.
Read the poem "The Pendulum" by by Yurgis Baltrushaitis to get into the mood of music.
When the dumb darkness most heavily clings,
Rhythmic and ruthless my pendulum swings.
Rustily creaking or whining dismay,
Urging each tarrying moment away.
Longing, it seems, for the days that are fled,
Down ancient stairways resounds someone's tread.
Heavy the footfall on flagstones unlit,—
Lower and lower and down to the pit.
Praying, it seems, for a long-vanished shore,
Dumbly the Helmsman with slow stubborn oar
Brokenly rows me, morosely alone,
Into my harbor, afar and unknown.
Evil the Ferryman, darkly he pounds;
Farther and farther, more muffled resounds,
Hostile and hopeless, the long downward climb:
Cold, ineluctable footsteps of Time. ... See MoreSee Less

Excerpt from Flower by Aleksandr Pushkin, trans. Yevgeny Bonver
The flower, very dry and scentless,
I see in the forgotten book;
And now, with the strangest fancies,
Is filled my soul’s every nook.
Where and in which spring was it grown?
And how long? By whom was cut?
By a hand known or unknown?
And why was put this page behind? ... See MoreSee Less

Selected as one of the "RECORDINGS OF THE YEAR 2020" by MusicWeb International - Boris Bloch and his CD release "Tchaikowsky" (Vol.9) by ARS Produktion.
"May Nights, May of The Seasons, begins with a lovely melody with a haunting opening motif repeated then smoothly extended into a climax, all evoking utter contentment in the scene. With Boris Bloch it’s all about poise of presentation and glow of piano sound, but he also conveys limpid calm and gratitude for it and the passion beyond and before it too."

New review by Orchestergraben for Boris Bloch's Tchaikowsky recording released by ARS Produktion.
"Ein weiterer Hörgenuss ist die den „Jahreszeiten“ folgende „Romanze f-Moll op. 5“. Boris Bloch erzeugt mit seinem Spiel ein Feuerwerk an Stimmungen. Farben- und kontrastreich in der Interpretation, bringt er dieses Kleinod zu höchster musikalischer Güte. Bei seiner Deutung des „Valse sentimental“ op. 51 gerät er nahezu in tänzerisches Schwärmen."
