“AN IMPECCABLE SOLO RECITAL BY EVE EGOYAN THAT EXCELS IN EVERY POSSIBLE WAY” – Gramophone Magazine

“A player of incredible, often very quiet intensity.” – The Wire

Egoyan’s take on new works is stunning…Egoyan’s remarkable playing balanced that delicacy with intense focus, holding all in a net…the spaces in between the notes were still charged with presence…I even found myself confusing sound with touch…so convincingly had Egoyan restitched our reference points. – The Globe and Mail

“What makes Egoyan an artist to die for is her devotion to new music. She specializes in the unfamiliar, but plays it so revealingly we come away from her recitals still wondering at the poetry she reveals in what can sound desiccated and dull… Her mind is all quicksilver in its lightness and leaping alertness… brilliantly clear and perceptive.” – Halifax Chronicle-Herald

“curatorial attention to concept and detail that is so apparent in every Egoyan recital…ears made newly patient by Egoyan’s precise, elegant and highly sympathetic performance” – Globe and Mail

“Egoyan is truly an astounding performer.” – I care if you listen

“A performer whose powers of listening cast a hypnotic spell over her audiences, opening their ears and hearts” – The National Post
