“Hofstötter maintains interest in judicious, exquisitely touched ornaments“

“I am pretty mesmerized by the playing … the momentum never flags … with brilliant articulation and balance. Hofstötter’s playing has a lot of subtlety in bringing out all of the voices and his lute’s tone is charming, the recording being captured with a lot of room sound that adds to the ambiance..“

“... an absolutely gorgeous, great-sounding rec of Silvius Leopold Weiss' lute music“

​

​

“And with his baroque lute, Hofstötter elicits sometimes brilliantly virtuoso, sometimes the most refined musical trains of thought.“

“Bernhard Hofstötter is an expert of this music. His performance is both technically sophisticated and expressive, as well as intuitive. The lutenist plays with panache and fascinates with his ability to elicit a multitude of colours and dynamic nuances from his instrument.“

"Classical album of the week"

“Highly recommended fireworks“

“Hofstötter is a profound connoisseur of this music and plays expressively, very flexibly and with a great deal of rhetorical flair with a fascinating colour and dynamic palette as well as a great deal of technical refinement.“
