From the review by Aart van der Wal / OpusKlassiek, November 2017: "Shaer allows himself a great deal of poetic license, in which his foremost priority is to infuse the works he is playing with a certain musical glow ... with an engaging style of cantabile playing that is embedded in a warm piano sound at the other end of the rich spectrum ..."

"I heard the staccato notes of both the second and fourth Bagatelle, Op. 126 in a dynamically powerful rendition, almost ‘liberated’ from the monotony that mars so many performances of these pieces. Hearing Shaer at work on the Bagatelles is like a breath of fresh air ... "

"The recording was produced by no one less than Andrew Keener ... It sounds just as we have come to expect from him: formidable. In conclusion, a stunning CD!"
