“Lovely rhapsodizing and climaxes done with a real feeling of exhilaration… A crisp virtuosity and quirky humour that are very winning”.
Gramophone, UK

“A deep, sincere rendering full of feeling”.
Fono Forum, Germany

“A highly recommendable collection. I sat enthralled by Levy during the whole of his interpretation”.
CD Review UK

“Levy gives us a masterly version”.
CD Compact, Spain

“Levy plays these marvellously, avoiding both the salon element and the literal approach of pianists who go too far in the opposite direction. Levy finds the perfect balance between simplicity and emotional restraint in this outstanding set”.
In Tune, Japan

“In these admirable Lyric Pieces by Grieg, Daniel Levy demonstrates that he is a pianist of singular refinement, with an extensive instrumental capacity and a deep musicality… Levy interprets with shrewd compenetration the shades of Scandinavian character and the Norwegian rhythms of these landscapes, elegies and dances that flow with Grieg’s lyrical nostalgia”.
La Nación, Argentina

“In defining the intimate and nostalgic character of this music, Daniel Levy emits the extraordinary expressive sensitivity and singular formal essentiality of Grieg’s music with exquisite refinement, revealing himself to be a likeable and spontaneous interpreter”.
Musicalia, Italy
