Review by Stephen Lee, December 6th, 2025

"As a lover of classical music, the violin, capable of conveying moving emotions, possessing rich overtones, a round and gentle tone, and a bright and penetrating sound, is an instrument I've always dreamed of. Contemporary famous violinists like Heifetz, Ostrach, Kogan, Rich, and others should, I believe, be familiar to every music lover. Recently, however, a highly accomplished artist has emerged whose name is relatively unknown to most music fans: Semyon Isaevich Snitkovsky (1933 - 1981), a master of his craft from Ukraine. Since this type of recording deviates from the usual mainstream, it may not be familiar to the average listener, but it is very popular among connoisseurs of the music scene. Hence, the label announced they would only press 250 vinyl records - no more shipping to Suzhou! If you listen to one of the CDs arranged by Snitkovsky, the work “Balalaika” by the Russian composer Shedrin, you can recognise the skill of the violinist." - Stephen Lee Review Semyon Isaevich Snitkovsky - Violin Recital TMR SE 0017

Snitkovsky performed with many great orchestras and famous conductors, such as Nathan Rakhlin, André Cluytens, Gennady Rozhdestvensky, and Karel Ančerl. André Cluytens said once after performing with Snitkovsky, "It is a great pleasure to play with such an outstanding artist as Semyon Snitkovsky. I will always be happy to make music with this brilliant musician".

Snitkovsky regarded his teaching career with the same inspiration and devotion as his performing one. Snitkovsky brought new input to violin teaching, there were many serious musicians among his students. While a professor at the Moscow Conservatory, from 1976 he was also a professor of violin class at the Liszt Music Academy in Budapest. Snitkovsky taught many masterclasses and instructional courses in different countries with great success. Quoting one of the articles about his participation in the concerts and masterclasses in Tour (France): "Snitkovsky is not only an outstanding virtuoso but is a great teacher".

The Soviet and foreign press excitengly praised him. There are short quotations from the hundreds of publications: "Soviet music" magazine notes his honourable style, excellent technique, beautiful sound and uniqueness of the phrasing. In 1977 after Snitkovsky triumphantly performed in Zurich, German newspaper "Tages Anzeiger" stated that Snitkovsky is one of the greatest violin players of his generation, calling his performance of excerpts from Stravinsky’s "Petrushka" "the fireworks of violin virtuosity that impresses with almost inhuman perfection". "Le Figaro" called Snitkovsky’s Parisian concerts an "eye-opener".
