“Classicism – A Point Of View”
Over almost 30 years, Michael Arbenz has established a reputation as one of Europe’s leading piano players. Acclaimed by John Fordham of The Guardian as “sophisticated, classically inspired but viscerally powerful”, Michael Arbenz has recently been exploring the creative opportunities for his highly intricate, intimate, inventive music in larger ensembles.
Since Michael Arbenz is classically trained, there are also reflections of classical chamber music. From piece to piece, the influence of composers including Ravel, Debussy, Mahler and Stravinsky can all be heard.
Fresh, flavorous, pulsating! Arbenz is extremely colorful and rich in expression…And he constantly surprises the listeners! – SKJazz, Sk
