“REVIEW: AN EXCEPTIONAL LISTENING EXPERIENCE”
“The pianist managed to create an arc of tension throughout the entire concert that delighted the audience and presented piano playing of the highest calibre… Namoradze cast a musical spell over the audience. In all four movements of the Hammerklavier Sonata he showed a dynamic flexibility and immense expression that never faltered… A recital of the highest class.”

“REVIEW: PIANIST THRILLS AUDIENCE”
“He explored the entire color palette of the instrument… He performed the virtuosic works with complete calm and control, his hands dancing over the keys as if it were child’s play… The musical highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the Hammerklavier Sonata. Namoradze interpreted the Adagio in particular, with its wide range of lament, grief and deep despair, in a devout and very moving way.”
