"Bezuidenhout plays Mozart on the fortepiano like no-one else. Here he performs an assortment of solo works with all the sensitivity, expressivity, flair and stylistic integrity that has marked him out as a supreme master of the early keyboard...and the genius of Mozart is brilliantly and eloquently served." Kenneth Walton, The Scotsman, 31 January 2012

"a new benchmark version" International Record Review, February 2012

"If your shelf of Mozart CDs sags as mine does from its precious burden, you may have sworn off any new Mozart recordings for the foreseeable future. But if you were to relent and allow yourself just one new Mozart disc in 2013, this should be it." Patrick Rucker, IRR

"Bezuidenhout offers a performance that brings out all [the Fantasia's] intensity and passion...his refreshingly imaginative performances are marred only by a liking for exaggerated pauses between musical paragraphs. This disc comes strongly recommended." BBC Music Magazine, February 2012 ***** (on earlier volume)
