"Anne Riegler performs magic with her piano. [...] She is clearly part of the new movement among pianists to play with instead of at the piano. Riegler reveals composers on a deep level. Her take on Ravel was delicious. She both rippled notes and ripped through them with a delicate sense of line and form. A masterful technician, it is her sensitive listening as she plays that distinguishes her and gives much pleasure to listeners who can hear Ravel afresh."

"An inventive approach to present the piano music of Maurice Ravel that bears direct relation to other composers and contrast them with each other. [...]. There is so much passion and power of creation in Riegler's playing. [...] A successful debut."
