***** Coup de cœur

Gérard Belvire – Classica magazine (France) – December 2023 /January 2024

“… Rewarding.”

Isabel Fedrizzi – Piano News (Germany) – July/August 2023

“… Bavouzet is able to craft intensely collaborative readings, in which bassoon and oboe chafe and chunter like Basilio to the piano’s right-hand Figaro in the turbulent K491. Both slow movements approach the dream ideal of concerto as chamber music without ever bathing in reverie.” *****

Attila Csampai – Rondo magazine (Germany) – Issue No. 2 March/April 2023

Performance ***** Recording ****

“… Bavouzet’s scintillating delivery of the quick movements reaches a peak in the finale of the C major Concerto, K503, which comes across as a display of musical and technical mastery that amazes even by Mozart’s standards…”

Malcolm Hayes – BBC Music magazine – April 2023

“… these are performances of warmth and beauty that continue to deliver fresh insights even after repeated hearings.”

Patrick Rucker – Gramophone magazine – March 2023

“…There is certainly unalloyed happiness to be found on this volume of Jean-Efflam Bovouzet’s Mozart piano concertos survey with Gábor Takács-Nagy and the Manchester Camerata… Bavouzet’s playing [of Concerto 24] is deliciously appealing, graceful, light and effortless every note expressive and crisp. The pairing with the Manchester Camerata conveys an aura of serenity in the slow movement. The woodwind superbly complement Bavouzet's playing, the exposed Bassoon part delightful. It lifts the spirit as does Concerto No 25 … The album opens with an energetic performance of the Overture to Le nozze di Figaro a sparkling addition setting the listener up for exciting performances that are to be relished.”

Andrew Palmer – Chimeo.com – February 2023

“… These performances are full of verve and charm, with a fine rapport between soloist and orchestra … Bavouzet’s passagework is finely articulated, and gracefully expressive, for the Larghetto in the C minor work he finds a honeyed tone.”

Michael Church – International Piano – March 2023
