“Alexey Stadler played with firm control and the kind of tactile, honeyed tone capable of bringing listeners to their knees.”
“Stadler was marvellous in Shostakovich in which the cellist’s technique, tone and musicianship were in total accord with the sentiments of the score.”
“So one of the marvels in the performance … by cellist Alexey Stadler, making a potent debut in Davies Symphony Hall with the San Francisco Symphony, was the way he relocated the center of gravity in this concerto. Instead of focusing on the first movement, … Stadler drew the audience’s attention to the slow movement, turning it into an expansive, beautiful and bittersweet rhapsody. … Stadler’s rendition of the slow music hit with the force of a revelation. His playing boasts a combination of coffee-coloured string tone and lithe flexibility, and he gave the music an emotional ambiguity that was compelling.”
“At 24 years old, Alexey Stadler is a remarkably self-assured perfomer. …he retained an impressive nonchalance – and impeccable intonation.”
