dora deliyska

Dr. Leslie Howard, renowned by his complete recordings of all Liszt piano works, writes 2009 in London about the young musician:

"Dora Deliyska's terrific recording debut with Liszt is characterized by a very thoughtful and tasteful playing: The sound ranges from delicatly breathtaking to musically motivated brilliance."

After a performance in the Netherlands, the pianist, organist and music critic Christo Lelie writes about Dora Deliyska:

"Dora recites the B minor Sonata monumentally and well-balanced. Her artistry and inner strength enables her to perform theres virtuosic pieces. The young Bulgarian pianist has recorded a gorgeous CD of Liszt."

Mag. Ulrike Lampert of the Wiener Musikverein interviews Dora Deliyska:

"The Bulgarian pianist Dora Deliyska decided early for the piano and with the piano she goes her own personal way. This way brought her on the 7th of April with a Schubert-Liszt program for the first time into the Musikverein." more =>

The Wiener Zeitung reviewed:

"Franz Liszt remains the touchstone of a pianist: The substance of the virtuoso attitude wants to be searched and the background of the giant keys thunder shall get screened. Otherwise it will become a superficial show. The young Bulgarian Dora Deliyska succeeds not only in the densely composed B minor Sonata surprisingly well, but also in the Schubert, Paganini and Wagner transcriptions. She uses her mastery only as a means to an end, which clearly is: rich, warm colours and a lively presentation.”

From the artist portrait in the Vienna Deluxe magazine:

"My luxury is the immersion in classical music as an artist, every concert is an evening in another world!" more=>

After her performance the daily newspaper La Voce del Popolo wrote:

"The young musician is already showing all signs of a fully matured artist: technology, intelligence, passion and charm. ... She plays with a full, honest and warm sound."
