"The 17-year-old violinist delivers a performance way beyond his years in what is an uncompromising debut album, and a radiant recording" Five Stars BBC Music
"In many respects this is a quite exceptional programme. I love the way Daniel Lozakovich marks every little harmonic twist and turn in the first movement of the E major Concerto, BWV1042 (ie from 2'12"), either with tiny changes of pace or modified tone colouring, and also his fragile vibrancy in the central Adagio. The finale has something of Heifetz's raw energy but with more varied articulation, whereas the finale of the A minor, BWV1041, has the benefit of strongly arpeggiated playing, making for a maximum of contrast with the Andante, for example the deathly quiet entry at 4'21" or Lozakovich's rapt handling of the coda." Gramophone
"Here's something to celebrate: not only a very talented violinist but also one who plays Bach in a timeless way, without fad or fancy, or 'authentic' conjecture; a wholesome approach that respects the printed page yet without being pedantic or literal to it; indeed the first movement of BWV1042, while ideally articulate in tempo, also has a beguiling swing. Thus Stockholm-born Daniel Lozakovich (aged sixteen at the time of these recordings) is the real deal - technically unflappable, poised of phrase, richly expressive with long lines, and a musician to his bowing arm."
