Alexander Knyazev is one of the most charismatic and talented musicians of his generation, successfully performing in three roles: cellist, organist and pianist. His multifaceted talent and virtuoso performance have made his name famous both in Russia and abroad. Alexander Knyazev's discography includes about 40 discs, including recordings of chamber music by composers such as Bach, Mozart, Brahms, Rachmaninoff, Shostakovich, Chopin, Franck and Ysaÿe. Among his most famous recordings are an anthology of cello works by Reger, Dvorak's Cello Concerto, Tchaikovsky's Variations on a Rococo Theme and Bloch's «Schelomo».
