Reviews
“Martin Grubinger is a once-in-a-hundred-years musician. When vital elemental force and artistic finishing touch, when nature and spirit come together so closely, the consciousness inevitably experiences a spontaneous expansion.” (Die Welt, July 2008)
“Mr. Grubinger… is a master of the high-speed chase. He can go from barely audible triple-pianos to earsplitting ultrafortissimos.” (New York Times, March 2008)
