| 'Breathtaking virtuosity, outshining all rivals' (The Guardian) 'The whole disc is an outstanding achievement - There's no better introduction in the current catalogue to this intriguing, paradoxical composer' (The Independent) 'Sa virtuosité hors du commun, symbolisée par une fluidité et un contrôle de la dynamique tout simplement sidérants' (Répertoire, France) 'Without a shadow of a doubt the finest Alkan recording ever made' (Soundscapes, Australia) 'The finest Alkan pianist of his generation' (BBC Music Magazine) 'Another Hyperion/Hamelin must' (Gramophone) 'The virtuosity is mind-boggling' (BBC Music Magazine) 'Un virtuoso sbalorditivo ... destinato a fare la gioia di chi cerca il virtuosismo puro (qui elevato a livelli stratosferici) e l'originalità del programma' (Musica, Italy) 'Breathtaking' (Penguin Guide to Compact Discs) 'Alkan est servi par un pianiste à la technique stupéfiante' (Répertoire, France) | |||||
