PRESSQUOTES
KLASSIEKE ZAKEN
Exciting and diverting, this concert of pianist Gerard Bouwhuis and the great musicians gathered around him

The whole is stimulating and certainly more than the parts.
PZC
Unique rendition of Cloud Atlas.
DAVID MITCHELL
An amazingly beautiful trip. It was not only touching but also an intellectual pleasure. Things turned out very well for the same reasons why my book is so well received.
