"The Haendal concerto by Marielle Normann will remain engraved in our memories forever. She is a fascinating vision by her beauty, and on listening to her music, all the more admirable.
Her remarkable energy, incredibly soft harmonies, series of moving glissandos, the captivating sound that she brings forth from her instrument, her digital virtuosity, sensibility and style inscribed in her performance show the marks of a genius. The impressive silence in the hall was followed by a burst of bravos and ecstatic applause."
