Agile Aimard shunning the heavy-going path, takes us to the heart of fugue

Once again Pierre-Laurent Aimard demonstrates that he is not only one of the most technically gifted pianists around today, he is also one of the most intelligent. Musical intellect shines through every bar in this account of The Art of Fugue, as Aimard eschews any sense of wallowing for a speedy, alert traversal of the score. It sounds so natural that it is something of a surprise at the end to realise how affecting it all is.

-- Gramophone [3/2008]
