"...Schumann’s piano music holds so many happy memories for me that I was looking forward to Solovieva’s performance, not having heard her in anything but ensemble music last year and been bowled over then by her sheer musicianship.  She did not disappoint. Singing (noiselessly) as she played, she was totally absorbed in these miniature dance masterpieces
as she perfectly captured their magic. Like the music’s reluctance to leave go of the penultimate chord’s notes, I was sorry that her performance had come to the end."

Статья к 95-летию Б.А. Чайковского

В девятом номере «Музыкального журнала» за 2020 год опубликована статья Ю.Б. Абдокова "Борис Чайковский: свобода и одиночество", посвящённая 95-летию со дня рождения крупнейшего русского композитора XX столетия. В своей статье профессор МГК им. П.И. Чайковского упоминает и Ольгу Соловьёву: "Замечательно ведь и то, что для этих и других музыкантов (достаточно вспомнить блистательную пианистку Ольгу Соловьёву в серии безупречных сольных и ансамблевых записей опусов Б. Чайковского) имя
и музыка Бориса Чайковского – это не «фестивальный идол», к которому обращаешься лишь в знаменательные дни. Нет, это живая
духовная реальность".
