"The piano writing is really thrilling, and needs a true virtuoso to bring it off in performance, something which Russian pianist Olga Solovieva so very comfortably achieves, playing with all the power and stylistic empathy the music demands. [...] This new release is a most compelling one, not only because it contains such attractive late-Romantic music, extremely well-executed and faithfully captured on disc, but because Alexey Stanchinsky really does have original things to say (Philip R. Buttall, MusicWeb International, about CD with Alexey Stanchinsky's music).

"Pianist Olga Solovieva blasts into the works with an imperious, crystalline authority that serves it to perfection. How judiciously this pianist measures the weight and mood of each item within her entire programme" (Howard Smith, CD Spotlight - about recordings of Galynin)

"...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." (Declan Townsend, Irish Examiner - about the performance of Papillons at the West Cork Chamber Music Festival)

"For pianist Olga Solovieva there can be nothing but praise. She is clearly dedicated to Lyadov’s cause, presenting each piece in the most favourable light. Solovieva is also a real virtuoso, and some very difficult piano writing rolls right off her fingers. The more lyrical  essays are shaped with a loving hand, and there is a feeling of freshness and discovery as she works her way through the early pieces on the disc, sustaining interest throughout." (Donald Manildi, International Record Review - about recordings of Lyadov)

"This disc marks the start of the first complete cycle of his piano music, and is a reminder of what a fine composer he could be within the narrow range in which he worked. <...> Olga Solovieva plays it all with great finesse, but is also not afraid to really let rip when required" (Tim Ashley, Guardian - about recordings of Lyadov)
