Her play can be described as intuitive and she is always feeling the connection with the composers. She especially feels connected with Liszt, Chopin and Rachmaninoff. Malènko is also composer and painter.
The Netherlands Wind Ensemble performed her composition in Paradiso Amsterdam and it was on Dutch Television. And she won the first prize at the Prinsengracht Music Festival with her transcription of an old Dutch song. Malènko performs frequently in a business program on Dutch television. 
Recently she recorded her own composition“Music is the key to humanity" She dedicates this single to the victims of the war in Ukraine and will donate the proceeds. Malènko owns a Blüthner Concert Grand Piano, the clarity and warm rich sound allows her to connect as good as possible. 

 

 

Historical Composers & Artists

"After my coffee and cigar we went to one of the recording rooms where they had a Blüthner piano Well, this Blüthner had the most beautiful singing tone I had ever found. I became quite enthusiastic and decided to play my beloved Barcarolle of Chopin. The piano inspired me. I don’t think I ever played better in my life.“

Arthur Rubinstein 

„My Many Years“ (page 281)

 

„In das Exil nach Amerika begleiteten mich nur zwei Wesen von Bedeutung: meine Frau Natalja und mein kostbarer Blüthner.“

“There are only two important things which I took with me on my way to America. My wife Natalia and my precious Blüthner.”

Sergei Rachmaninoff

 

 “Almost in the middle of the room, the black Blüthner grand stood, free of music, book or photographs. Debussy was proud of his grand piano, and before I played he showed me a new device invented by Blüthner: an extra string set on top of the others. Although not touched by the hammers, it caught the overtones, thus increasing the vibrations and enriching the sonority. This was a piano he had rented during a stay in Bournemouth, and liked so well that he had bought it and had it shipped to Paris.” “He played a number of passages and the tone he extracted from the Blüthner was the loveliest, the most elusive and ethereal I have ever heard”.
