"Berlinsky displayed complete technical mastery. He played the
Beethoven Concerto with elegance of style and phrasing -- and in the
Paganini Concerto, he gave an exceptional display of controlled violin
playing."
The Strad
"He allowed himself to be carried away by the richness of the Franck
Sonata. His tone was rounded and velvety, and he phrased in a way that
brought out the music’s fire."
The New York Times
"an impressive showcase for Berlinsky's technical prowess and sensitive
playing....He made it look easy." {Glazunov 2nd Concerto]
El Paso Times
"The Mendelssohn brought about the welcome appearance of the Russian
(and now American-based) Dmitri Berlinsky,... A superbly equipped
player, with a rock-steady bow arm and ultra-confident technique, he
sailed through the 13-year-old Mendelssohn's precocious essay in
concerto writing with serene self-confidence"
The Toronto Star
"Berlinsky shone. He exuded the confidence and poise of a young
Valentino. There was no shortage of brilliance and fun in his
performance of Paganini’s ‘La Campanella, and his verve was a source
of delight."
The Washington Times
"Ysaye (1858-1931), a wildly celebrated violinist in his own time,
gave the soloist a real chance to shine in his work. Berlinsky took
full advantage of the opportunity, flawlessly gliding through the
sometimes thorny piece. The young Russian has technique to spare, but
never lets it become mere flashiness, instead playing with quiet
authority."

Dmitri Berlinsky,
violin
"Dmitri Berlinsky closed the concert with a poetic, sweet-toned
account of the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto. ...Mr. Berlinsky brought
something of his own to the music, namely a flexibility of phrasing
that let him find fresh twists in the work's familiar passions."
The New York Times
"Berlinsky's eloquence and tastefulness
imbued his reading of the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto with warmth and
distinction."
The Strad
"Berlinsky... gets around his instrument
with all the skill of the most celebrated violinistic hot dogs - at
16, he was the youngest first-prize winner of Genoa's Paganini
Competition - but with a seriousness of purpose"
The
Baltimore Sun
"it was an impressive showcase for Berlinsky's technical prowess and sensitive playing nonetheless. He made it look
easy." [Glazunov 2nd Violin Concerto]
El Paso Times"Economical in the histrionic department, Berlinsky's
playing was the antithesis of his calm demeanor. Sonically, this was
electrifying playing to more than satisfy any discriminating aural
palate. Berlinsky's tone and scholarly phrase work captured the
essence of Mozart's score. In every respect, there was finesse all
over the place."
Salt Lake Tribune
"Berlinsky displayed all his technical
brilliance, especially in the demanding third movement, marked ‘presto
in moto perpetuo’ (fast in perpetual motion). But his playing in the
first two lyrical and emotion-charged movements was beautifully shaped
and shaded, spinning out the long lines with deep understanding and
emotion." [Barber Concerto]
The Palm Beach Post
"Dmitri Berlinsky possesses an impeccable bowing technique which
achieves a captivating sweetness throughout the breadth of the entire
register..."
Le Nacion (Buenos Aires)
"The distinct artistry of Russian violinist Dmitri Berlinsky was
surely the highlight of the evening in a deeply expressive performance
of Samuel Barber's Violin Concerto, Op. 14. ... Berlinsky, in his
refreshingly unaffected and polished stage presence, and extraordinary
musical understanding, delivered a performance that was concurrently
lyrical, rhythmically complex and harmonically rich."
Boulder Daily Camera
"...superbly played with beautifully contoured
phrases. The artist captured the dark mood of the work and imbued it
with a rich, warm tone throughout. Equally impressive, although in a
different way, was the scherzo, in which he demonstrated manual
dexterity that was almost athletic. ...Berlinsky is an extremely
impressive young artist with fantastic technique..."
