"Jean-Efflam Bavouzet
"speaks" Bartok without an accent. Invited by George Solti, the young
pianist makes his debut with L'Orchestre de Paris in the Bartok 3rd Piano
Concerto conducted by Pierre Boulez." [Headline]
Le Figaro, Paris, 1998
"He made a superb impression, playing with subtle
nuance, a rhythmic delicacy, poise, grace and clarity, and projected a
keen sense of architecture and understated drama."
The Los Angeles Times
"Jean Efflam Bavouzet is a brilliantly imaginative
and energetic pianist."
The Times, London
"Beautiful virtuosity. The French pianist Bavouzet
masters the bloodcurdling difficulties with such playfulness that it seems
almost frightening."
Westdeutsche Allgemeine Zeitung
"Bavouzet's talent and presence were immediately
apparent; one heard the stuff of a real musician whose masterful technique
is at the service of a sensitive interpreter."
Le Monde, Paris
"He gave the 12 independent universes of Debussy's
Book Two the same degree of violence, delicacy, humor, and poetry he had
devoted to Book One - and then, with extreme generosity and perfect Gallic
aplomb, went on to show us that he was just as much at home with a totally
different kind of genius."
