"Steen-Nøkleberg is entirely inside this music. He manages to make the familiar pieces sound fresh, and the less familiar... are most imaginatively played."
- Gramophone - May 1996
"There is plenty of lovely music here. The project is executed with great skill and originality by Steen-Nokleberg."
- Fanfare (U.S.A.) - May/June 1996
"...completion of this valuable series...A parade of largely unfamiliar music, excellently played and recorded."
- Classic CD - July 1996
"By the second bar of the first item here, Steen-Nøkleberg has established himself beyond doubt as a pianist and musician of undoubted quality."
- Classic CD - August 1996
