"MARCO GRIECO IN RECITAL"
"....there are still remarkably few capable of playing his music with both the technique and sheer unmitigated panâche which it requires.
On the basis of the second half of his recital last Friday, Marco Grieco is clearly one of this happy band, casting aside the ferocious challenges of three of Liszt's most extravagantly extravert works...."
"...Grieco gave a tremendously virtuosic performance of the sonata..."
"Grieco was suitably demonic and his hands at times were a mere blur..... It was a tremendously exciting performance..."
"....Again Grieco played the music to the hilt, his rapidfire repeated notes being particularly impressive, and the recital definitely ended "with a bang"...."
"...his playing seemed perfectly attuned to the music, with some quite lovely tone colours and a very natural-sounding rubato..."
"...Grieco is a more-than-interesting pianist and this was a splendid opening to Oak Bay Music's new season..."
(from "Music in Victoria" written by the reviewer Deryk Barker for OAK BAY MUSIC SOCIETY "Master Series") 2016 CANADA TOUR)
"MARCO GRIECO MESMERISES AUDIENCE"
...immediately invoking an atmosphere of musical other-worldliness and complete professionalism. Whether bravura or delicate,each note was neatly completed....Grieco's approach to these works was pure, thoughtful and when called on by composer, dynamic. With few mannerisms he is professional to his dexterous yet, at times, almost languid fingertips....finishing with a glorious rendition of Liszt's Rigoletto Paraphrase....All in all, a well-rounded performance by a most gifted pianist whom the Mossel Bay Arts Society is particularly proud and privileged to have presented to local audiences.
(from "Mossel Bay Advertiser" written by Lynn Kelly -South Africa Tour 2014)
italian pianist Marco Grieco's performances in China have attracted much attenction from media. According to the Nanguo Morning Post, "Grieco has not only created for himself but also for the audience a fantastic music world". His interpretations of Piano Sonata "The Tempest" and "Moonlight" by Beethoven as well as Scherzo No. 2 in B-flat minor, Op. 31 by Chopin, all left a great impression to the audience.

wonderful music enthralled the audience....Marco Grieco not only immerses himself but also the audience in his fantastic music world..."
(South China Morning Post- 25-06-2013)
On 26th June italian pianist Marco Grieco offered the audience (more than 800 students and teachers) a fantastic piano recital...Marco Grieco bring for the audience a creative Bach Busoni, The Tempest by Beethoven...with consummate interpretative skill of the different styles and themes from classical music giving us an unparalleled artistic enjoyment...

We are one of the most active Impresario of Classical Music Organizer in the country and we are very proud to be part of Marco Grieco's debut performances and success. His superb playing has proven to be as same quality and enjoyment as any world famous pianists such as Vladimir Horowitz and Maurizio Pollini just to name a few...we called " you are a national treasure of Italy." You can go anywhere to rapresent this treasure..."
(Mongkol Chayasirisobhon - concert organizer in Thailand)
...."A special note of thanks for bringing to Thailand a great artist of the calibre of Maestro Marco Grieco. It was a pleasure for myself as well as the young students. They will treasure this performance forever"...
(Prof. Paolo Piazzardi- Cultural attache to the Italian Embassy in Thailand and current working on "The Piano in the Kingdom of Thailand")
Considero Marco Grieco come uno dei grandi pianisti, a livello internazionale, di questa nuova generazione. Possiede un altissimo livello di preparazione tecnica e musicale. Mostra in tutto una personalità molto definita, sincera e sensibile. Domina la musica con consapevolezza e profonda conoscenza ...
(Margarita Morais - Presidente della "Fundacion Eutherpe" in Leon - Spagna)
..."Marco Grieco, fenomeno del pianoforte"...
(tratto da "L'Attacco")
..."Uno dei più interessanti interpreti che la musica italiana abbia prodotto negli ultimi anni "...
("Regione del Veneto- Tra la Terra e il Cielo"-www.veneto.to)...
Grande naturalezza senza esitazioni, ne' compromessi ...tempi calibratissimi e tecnica brillante inseriti in un contesto architettonico ricco di grande narrativa ottocentesca. Sonorità corpose anche nei pianissimi, mentre gli allegri scoppiano di salute. Il tutto in una dottrina esecutiva che non lascia nulla all'improvvisazione stilistica, riuscendo a conciliare scuole e convinzioni diverse, creando suono slancio espressivo e rapida scioltezza di fraseggio....
(tratto da "OndaCalabra.it" e Il "Cirotano.it" del 16/11/2011)
"Dotato di una gestualità espressiva molto elegante e misurata, ha interpretato con grande maestria pagine importanti del repertorio pianistico....esibendosi in un pomeriggio musicale che certamente sara' ricordato a lungo..."
(tratto da "Messaggero Veneto" del 24/11/2010)
"L’atmosfera della nostra Basilica si è rivelata come il non plus ultra per una musica di un livello estremamente alto e trascinante nell’interpretazione del pianista Marco Grieco..."
