“Jonathan Oshry tastefully
opened the evening with Bach's A minor English Suite with
a flighty, zestful performance that was well-shaped and
controlled...“ – review of Wigmore Hall performance
“Oshry produced one of
his best performances in the solo part of Beethoven’s Piano
Concerto No 3 in C Minor… The playing was masculine without
transgressing a sense of Classical scale, the interpretation
nicely balanced between exuberance and repose; the articulation
in scale and arpeggio passages was always clean.” – The
Citizen
“Saint-Saëns Piano Concerto
No 2 … Without doubt, this was the best performance of this
difficult concerto I have ever heard.” – Sunday Tribune
“The best performance of
the evening was undoubtedly Ravel’s Gaspard de la nuit in
which Oshry captured most effectively the variety of textures
and wonderful atmosphere in the music, particularly in Le
Gibet, as well as the demanding technical virtuosity of
Scarbo.” - Natal Mercury
“Liszt Mephisto Waltz No
1 and the encore, Prokofiev’s Toccata, were solidly exuberant.”
– The Star
“Oshry’s performance of
the demanding Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini was nothing
short of dazzling.” – Saturday Paper
“Violin/Piano duo performance
– What sets these two apart is a precocious sensitivity
and musicality, an ability to interpret what lies behind
the notes on the page and a maturity of understanding far
beyond their years. Technical virtuosity goes without saying,
of course.” – Sunday Times
