I only listened to the first one but I fail to see anything coming anywhere close to what would be called "virtuosity". The improv was not bad but the title innapropriate.

if you are interested to check wherther he is virtuoso, or not... you can download some albums of his improvisations from his Web-site:   https://pavelignatyev.com/
