‘None of this would be significant if he were not also a pianist with the necessary technique to command these often very technically challenging works and able to convey their mystery, power and beauty. I immediately noticed the refinement of his sound, how often Scriabin asks for pianissimo or even ppp and how precisely these dynamic indications are observed. Kreiling also uses the sustaining pedal lightly and well, so that the sound shimmers and glows without getting muddy. His leggiero passages – and there are many of them – are fantastically light and airy. He can layer the texture, so that the theme comes out despite lots of filigree decoration above and grumbling bass below. He is not fazed by the polyrhythms. The way he plays the descending figures of fourths in the eighth sonata has to be heard to be believed.’
