Bach unlimited

"'Bach is to the pianist what the barre is to the dancer,' writes Lise de la Salle, and there is indeed something dancerly in the dynamism and precision she brings to the music on this disc ... It's quite a mix, but De la Salle's compelling playing makes it hang together".

"Lise de la Salle ... spielt das Italienische Konzert in einer erfrischend unkomplizierten Manier. Sie packt schnell und präzise zu, spielt manchmal vielleicht ein bisschen vordergründig, aber immer herzhaft musikantisch und ohne historisierendes Etepetete. Und auch im weiteren Verlauf überzeugt sie durch pianistische und musikalische Kompetenz".

"The fine idea underpinning this interesting album from Lise de la Salle is to follow the inspiration Bach has provided up to the present day, including rarities and new commissions ... If only De la Salle had explored new short pieces from several composers, rather than just one - Thomas Enhco ... They are not inappropriate ... But if you're going to programme something beside Bach, it has to be exceptionally good ... Her strength and rapidity are, up to a point, impressive, but there's much that is too fast, too loud and rather-in-your-face".
