International Record Review"Haefliger is an artist at his peak: confident, serene, consummately lyrical...
a vision of musical architecture second to none"
BBC Music MagazineHe combines a strenuously intellectual approach with a gorgeously velvety touch, the latter reminiscent of Wilhelm Kempff…An ideally sensitive and glowing account..an individual reading which stresses its affectionate qualities….This is a disc to give balm to the soul.
GuardianHaefliger, lean and percussive in the outer movements, balanced elegance with austerity in the adagio...it ranked among the most striking performances of the work to be heard for some time.
