«  … The fingers and the mind… Charm, poetry, technical solidity and surprising expressive maturity ... A significant program, particularly courageous, not only in choice but in action, in the quest for perfection, neither achieved nor achievable, the well pitched tones, the restitution to the listener of the composer's mind, in the exaltation of each phrase… Rarely does one have the pleasure of listening to over an hour's recital of such intensity… Right from the first notes of Bach's Prelude, from this sidereal universe that Lorenzo Turchi manages to recreate with a truly fascinating range of timbres, one is able to perceive the extent of the performance. Pianist with remarkable expertise, a musical producer of unfailing lucidity, musician with incomparable élan, he is not afraid to immerse himself completely in what he is interpreting…  »
