"There is no other collection of the complete Haydn keyboard music that comes anywhere close to this one. Ronald Brautigam plays all of this music, even the early divertimento-sonatas, as if it truly matters, with excitement and real panache." 10/10 performance & sound (ClassicsToday)

"…in the earliest sonatas Brautigam plays… with ready wit, and he used to the full the dynamic and tonal range, so that the simplest pieces have colourful charm and never sound under-nourished. In the later works… his technique is always equal to Haydn's demands, from the most skittish of scherzos to the volcanic eruptions and harmonic bravado of the darkest and most forward-looking sonatas." BBC Music

"…if you want Haydn's complete keyboard works in performances that totally embrace the composer's surprises, emotional highs and lows and technical demands, nothing holds a candle to fortepianist Ronald Brautigam's cycle on BIS - a bargain at 15 CDs for the price of three." Gramophone
