“there is plenty to appreciate on this disc, not least the sheer simple grace of his expression. The Allegro in B Flat Major K400 is a delightful display of gentle exuberance, and movements such as K330's “Andante Cantabile” and the Adagio in B Minor K540 show that he is equally capable of quiet profundity.”

“Wallisch's reading contain many attractive qualities: immaculately clean fingerwork, fine phrase-characterisation and sense of balance. But this is, of course, much-recorded repertory...the CD is a pleasurable play-through, and recommendable as such.”
