"Zsigmond Gerlóczy is a remarkable and wildly creative pianist. In his playing I hear sophistication and irreverence, technical wizardry and poetic depth, and more than anything an abundance of joyous feeling. I'm only recently starting to become familiar with his music, but I look forward to hearing much more from him over the years to come." —Aaron Parks
"Gerlóczy has bursts of inspiration that are mind-boggling. He seems endlessly creative, and plays with an open heart." —Larry Goldings
