“...Henry Kramer [was] triumphant in a thrilling performance of [Prokofiev’s] Sixth Sonata.”

“This is a pianist of enormous talent. Venue be damned, the music made it an event.”

“After a dark and quietly expressive performance of Bach’s G-sharp Prelude and Fugue (WTC I), pianist Henry Kramer pulled off a thrilling and nearly flawless performance of Brahms’ Variations on a Theme by Paganini. Playing with astonishingly confident technique, steady rhythm and masterful pacing, he dazzled the ear for 25 straight minutes. There’s not much more to say about it than, ‘Wow!’”

“...the third movement of Ravel’s Presto was superb under Kramer’s hands, executed with light dexterity and tonal sensitivity. ”

“He produced a most exceptionally rich sound, big-boned in certain respects yet intimate when it mattered. He traversed [Beethoven’s A Major Sonata (Op. 101)]’s wide-ranging emotions with great sensitivity, wistful for the opening theme and somber in the third movement, and when the gloves came off for the second movement’s march and the valedictory finale, he swept everything before him.”

“... as technically flawless and precise as a faceted diamond...”

“Henry Kramer in Prokofiev’s Sixth Sonata was especially successful in investing this fingerbuster with expressive character.”
