De Standaard, 24/09/1993

The orchestra Beethovenacademie, the conductor Peter Eötvös and Jan Michiels have played in a wonderful way-with their interpretations they reached to the essence of each piece a.o. ‘quasi una fantasia’ op.27,1 of G.Kurtág (…). Jan Michiels went to the deepest core of Webern Variationen op.27 and he played an almost perfect Beethoven (Sonata op.27,1).
