"an impressive...utterly charming...ideal performance...Lan has fluent technique, sensitive musicianship and a probing intellect"
by Ken Keaton; Palm Beach Daily News, FL, 2012
"Lan, the orchestra and Noll worked like paint layers on canvas, each adding a texture to the concerto that created a compact, vivid whole."
by Harriet Howard Heithaus; Marconews.com, FL, 2010
"She made the harpsichord sing well beyond what most of us have ever heard from the instrument."
by Harriet Howard Heithaus; Naplesnews.com, FL, 2010
"The technically fierce Presto (Schumann 2nd Sonata final movement) was a perpetual motion of toccata-like accelerations alternating with slower lyrical interludes, a pattern Lan handled with distinction and grace."
by Charles Greenfield; Coral Gables Gazette, FL, 2008
"There has clearly been huge thought devoted to the piece; the “Romance” sings marvelously, while the rhythms of the short “Scherzino” are beautifully springy; the high-velocity finale also is excellently flighty, its technical hurdles melting to nothing. It is clear there is an exquisite musicality at work here." by Colin Clarke @ Fanfare Magazine
"In Lan's hands, there is a palpable sense of danger and excitement throughout"
"Lan gives a performances worthy of this album's title with a sweeping and impassioned reading"
