Early life

Performances

He gave his very first concert in 1983 at the Moscow Conservatory. Other concerts all over Russia followed. His encounter with Svjatoslav Richter in June 1985 at Saint Petersburg had a deep influence on Hoteev's pianistic style.[3] After the recommendation of Valery Gergiev he got the chance to give concerts in the Netherlands at Concertgebouw Amsterdam and in Germany at Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival in 1990. Hoteev's first European tour followed in 1993, including cities in Russia, Great Britain, Germany, Belgium and Spain. In the same year, he recorded his first CD in France. In September 1993 Hoteev played the manuscript version of Modest Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition for the first time in the UK at Purcell Room, London.[4] The Russian television of Saint Petersburg broadcast a concert with Hoteev and the Saint Petersburg Academic Symphony Orchestra in October 1993 from the Greater Hall of Saint Petersburg Philharmonic Hall presenting a new version of the 3rd piano concert by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky with explanations by the pianist himself, who had rediscovered the original version with three movements after manuscripts by the composer.[5] Also in 1993 he moved to Hamburg with his family.

In 1995 he gave several concerts in France. Among the concert venues on this tour were Salle Pleyel in Paris as well as the Festival de Radio France et Montpellier. He played with the Orchestre national du Capitole de Toulouse, Orchestre National de Montpellier Languedoc-Roussillon and the Concerts Lamoureux Symphony Orchestra Paris.

Two years later he presented and recorded the same program, along with the Allegro in C minor, as well as the Ungarische Zigeunerweisen by Franz Liszt and Sophie Menter in an orchestration by Tchaikovsky.[6][7] Another important activity is his work with radio and TV corporations like NDR and Deutschland Radio Berlin in Germany, VARA and VPRO Netherlands, Radio Lugano Switzerland, NHK and TBS in Japan.

In 2006, Andrej Hoteev realized a project with colored light, pictures and music at Greater Hall of the Laeiszhalle Hamburg. As soloist accompanied by Hamburg Symphony Orchestra conducted by Andrey Boreyko he presented the authentic colour light score with Clavier à lumières of Alexander Scriabin's Prometheus: The Poem of Fire rediscovered by himself as well as the original colored light and picture scores by Wassily Kandinsky to Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition.[8][9]
