“Sicroff has the talent of presenting de Hartmann’s pianistic perfume, as well as the inherent meaning of his music in a wonderful way. With musical collaborators like sopranos Claron McFadden and Nina Lejderman, flutist Ingrid Geerlings and violinist Joris van Rijn (among others) the calibre of the recordings is guaranteed.”     Frits van der Waa, De Volkskrant, November 11th 2016

“It must be said: this is, almost without exception, gorgeous and necessary music. I find I keep reaching for this little treasure-trove of a box with songs, chamber music and piano music.”    Jurjen Vis, Luister Magazine, Issue No. 719, November 2016

“It’s not often that one encounters such meticulous love and commitment for a project as that dedicated to the Russian composer Thomas de Hartmann by the Dutch label Basta… The lion’s share of this monumental project belongs to the pianist, Elan Sicroff, whose interpretations are both technically brilliant and reveal a playful imagination.”   Remy Frank, Pizzicato, 12 October, 2016
