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".
