PRESS ON PETER PAN
"The opera's score is written in a free, melodic language."
“From the point of view of composing technology, this is a very faultless ork. There is a proper handling of musical forms, proper thematicism, and the most diverse orchestration techniques from a graduate of the Moscow Conservatory and the Royal Academy of Music in London.”
Rossiyskaya Gazeta - 07.05.2024
"The main advantage of the new work is the high level of performance."
"The language of Rubtsov is democratic, based on melodicism and involvement in the musical fabric of the entire musical context of our time... This is an absolute plus."
"The choir... and the orchestra sound very good, led, as in the good old days, by the composer himself, who acted as the music director."

ПИТЕР ПЭН - ПРЕССА
"Партитура оперы написана свободным мелодичным языком."
"С точки зрения композиторской технологии - это очень правильная работа. Здесь, как и положено, есть и ученое обращение с музыкальными формами, и должный тематизм, и самые многообразные приемы оркестровки от выпускника Московской консерватории и Королевской академии музыки в Лондоне."
"Главное достоинство новой работы — высокий уровень исполнения."
"Язык композитора Рубцова — демократичный, основанный на мелодизме и вовлечении в музыкальную ткань всего музыкального контекста современности .... Это безусловный плюс."
"Качественно звучат хор ... и оркестр, ведомый, как в старые добрые времена, самим композитором, выступившим в качестве дирижера-постановщика собственной оперы."
