"with Michelangeli these climaxes seem to burst through the music of their own volition, as though an irresistible force of nature has been released." (Gramophone)
"with Michelangeli these climaxes seem to burst through the music of their own volition, as though an irresistible force of nature has been released. It's this crowning of a structure by release, rather than by extra pressure, which gives the performance a sense of exaltation and which more than anything else sets it on a different level. It enables him to be freer in many details, yet seem more inevitable as a whole." (Gramophone)
