http://www.jwentworth.com/kasman/kasman.htm
"....pyrotechnics came from Russian pianist Yakov Kasman, who illuminated his performance of Beethoven’s "Emperor" Concerto with electrifying energy and sparkling tonal colors and followed the piece with a brittle, crackling march from "Love for Three Oranges," by Prokofiev. Kasman’s style glimmers with the best of Russian schooling: the unabashed caressing of a line, the tempo liberties that dance around a solid beat, the virile technique and voluptuous sound.
But the Van Cliburn silver medalist is an individualist and a solid ensemble musician too. A slight figure, often hunched over the keyboard, he communicated a trance-like focus and assertive poetic lyricism that played with - and played off conductor Carl St. Clair’s stricter adherence to classical proportions." Los Angeles Times, August 10, 1998 "Kasman’s dynamic, powerful pianism transcends his slight stature, and his spectacular technical abilities place him in the great tradition of Josef Lhevinne. The Haydn "Sonata in G Major, " Hob. XVI/40, a seeming bagatelle, became the jewel of the program for me. Kasman played it to perfection. He never strained but effortlessly produced a compelling vignette of the Classical era. His attacks and releases emerged as clear as Glenn Gould’s yet the overall structure of the short sonata was never deformed. What’s more, he played the work with the rarest of gifts, humor. Haydn definitely implies the humor, beginning with the tempo indication of "allegretto innocente," yet musical humor is a quality all too often overlooked by serious young medal winners." The San Juan Star, Puerto Rico, March 3, 1999

Russian pianist dazzles onstage concert audience
By Sterling Adams
For The Savannah Morning News Savannah Onstage's World Class Concert Series continued Saturday afternoon at First African Baptist Church with a spectacular performance by pianist Yakov Kasman. Winner of silver medals in two world class piano competitions the 1997 Van Cliburn and the 1995 International Prokofiev the 30-year-old Russian turned in superlative renditions of works by Medtner, Mussorgsky, Ravel and Prokofiev. It was evident from the beginning that Kasman was something of a pianistic phenomenon. His exquisitely etched, clearly delineated realizations of three ''Fairy Tales'' by Nicolai Medtner were breathtaking excursions. His fleet-fingered traversal of these relatively unfamiliar works was even more astounding, coming at the beginning of the program hardly pieces one warms up on! Next, Kasman offered one of the more monumental piano masterpieces from the 19th-century Russian national school: Mussorgsky's ''Pictures at an Exhibition.'' His conception of these musical evocations of Victor Hartmann's paintings was as exciting and exemplary in approach as one may hear anywhere. He used his considerable technical prowess with dazzling effect in such sections as ''The Marketplace at Limoges'' and in the final measures of ''The Great Gate at Kiev,'' achieving sonorities that almost transcended the limits of the instrument. It was here that the first of two standing ovations occurred.

Russian Yakov Kasman, laureate of theVan Cliburn Competition. This magnificently gifted pianist confined himself in the Russian repertoire, with Prokofiev's Second Concerto (a dazzling cadence in the fourth movement), Moussorgsky's Paintings of an Exposition (with original ideas in the enchainements), Prokofiev's Second Sonata and Shostakovich's First Concerto, very well interpreted with its alternations of tenderness and comical winks.

- Le Figaro
January 13, 1998 Kasman is a slight, dark, bearded man with an air of intensity and coiled energy. It must be the harnessing of that energy rather than the pianist's physical stature that accounts for the colossal amplitude of sound he can produce. This listener has seldom heard anyone, other than Garrick Ohlsson, who pours on the tone so torrentially. Not only does he have a huge sound, but he also has diabolical fleetness of fingers and pinpoint accuracy. Along with these titanium chops, though, he possesses the soul of a poet and sensibility of a painter. - Boston Globe

    Review of August 9, 2001 performance
    with the Peninsula Music Festival Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 2 Victor Yampolsky, conductor ...In between these works, a major 20th-century concerto was the vehicle through which we were introduced to a remarkable pianist. ... The soloist was Yakov Kasman, slight of physical stature but lacking nothing in power - or anything else for that matter. Tensed but not tense, he let his strength flow from his shoulders directly down his upper arms, to the forearms, wrists and fingers. Nothing wasted. In a work usually thrashed and pummeled, he brought forth wave after wave of fathomless, ringing tone while keeping instantly available a subtly rounded pianissimo for passages of contrast. Kasman's musicianship is also of the highest order and he found every filament of substance and suggestion within the concerto. So absolute a term as consummate still seems inadequate for his art.

So amazingly good that you'd think you have the Talich Quartet right in your room LIVE and just playing for you!! The performance of the Quartet is impressive, conveying the musical messages from Mozart in a warm, charming and invigorating way. I just can't stop listening these pieces!! I don't get tired of them!! I have never get bored with them. If I were to live with only three CD's in my collection of Classical Music, this set would be one of them. No doubt about it!! If you like Chamber Music, you like Mozart and if you consider yourself to be an audiophile or demand the best sound possible for what you pay for, and if you care for only top notch performers executing to the highest standards of quality, discipline and sensitive mastery, then this CD is for you The members of the Talich Quartet, joined here by violist Karel Rehak, are master Mozarteans who play with tremendous zest and unaffected affection. With a lyrical performance of Mozart's beloved Clarinet Quintet thrown in (featuring clarinetist Bohuslav Zahardnik), this award-winning, budget-priced-three-disc set is an extraordinary value.

    "It is truly a virtuoso season," said Treger. "This eclectic series of concerts is designed to showcase the talent of the orchestra's young musicians as well as our stellar soloists." Considered one of the nation's premier training orchestras, the American Youth Symphony plays a vital role in providing first-hand experience for up-and-coming musicians. Treger selects repertoire that not only challenges the orchestra members but also prepares them for the rigors of a professional career in music. The concerts also provide them with a valuable opportunity to perform with an elite group of soloists.

    Lyn Bronson Well, she didn't wear a red, white and blue cape, and she didn't spin around three times, but she did just about everything else. Kate Tamarkin, the second guest conductor this season being considered for the post of conductor and music director of the Monterey Symphony, charmed us with her personality and wowed us with the superb results she achieved with our orchestra. Just as significant was the fact that she earned the respect and support of the orchestra members themselves. Sometimes we see string players politely tapping their bows against their instruments as a form of applause, but this is the first time I can remember hearing our orchestra members wildly stamping their feet at the end of the concert.
    The occasion at Sunset Center in Carmel on Monday, November 16, was the second concert of the Monterey Symphony's 1998-99 concert season. And this is vitally important season, since seven guest conductors have been selected to audition with the orchestra, and one will become the orchestra's future music director and conductor.

    CHOO Hoey conductor OVERALL NOISE RATING: 1 (The orchestra was too loud for any coughing to be heard) The Noise Rating Index is a partially-objective measurement of pager and handphone blasts, 9pm and 10pm watch beeps, coughing-during-the-pianissimo-bits, intra-audience conversation and other mind-bogglingly inept noises emitted in the concert hall during actual performance of music. It is measured on a scale of to 5, in increasing annoyance. This review has been kindly sponsored by the Singapore Symphonia Co. Ltd by Adrian Tan Only upon the return of Conductor Emeritus Choo Hoey does the audience get treated to the likes of tonight's program. Van Cliburn Silver Medalist Yakov Kasman joins the SSO in the beautiful Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No. 2 in the first half of the program, followed by the daunting Symphony No. 11 "The year 1905" by Dmitri Shostakovich. High expectations abound from those who know the music. Surely, the SSO has come a long way to even dare attempt a repertoire such as this, a challenging program which will definitely test the musicians onstage to their fullest. A lingering thought at the back of one's mind is surely the heavy repertoire that might not bother the performers but the audience. Still, we keep an open mind for one of the season's most awaited concerts.
