“López-Gavilán is not only a formidable virtuoso, but also exceeds in works that require extraordinary color and fascinating sounds. His natural talent never suffers and his original thinking as an artist assures a performance of amazing playing and individuality.”

— The London Times

“infectious vitality, breezy confidence and (most importantly) an affectionate warmth that one would scarcely have thought possible.”

— The Strad
