Official news about Nikita Boriso-Glebsky

On March 18, Nikita Boriso-Glebsky performed at the Vienna Konzerthaus with the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Julian Rachlin.

Critics praised Nikita’s outstanding interpretation. Kurier wrote: "In Max Bruch’s Violin Concerto, Rachlin allowed his colleague, violinist Nikita Boriso-Glebsky, to fully unfold, bringing a pulsating energy to the piece. The soloist and orchestra were in perfect harmony. Boriso-Glebsky infused the melancholic melody with an unsettling beauty, his violin singing with intimate, profound emotion. What magnificent phrasing! The passages in the finale were delivered with exceptional expressiveness and elegance."

Meanwhile, Der Standard described Nikita as "a phenomenal violinist" who "masterfully conveyed the sweetness of Bruch’s concerto without overindulging in excessive sentimentality." They also praised his bold approach, highlighting that he "handled the technically demanding passages with both ease and daring." As an encore, Boriso-Glebsky performed Heinrich Wilhelm Ernst’s Grand Caprice on Schubert’s ‘Erlkönig’ for solo violin, which was hailed as "a demonstration of the highest level of virtuosity."
