'Dirk HERTEN is a pianist who marches to the beat of a different metronome...' 

The whole Note - David Olds

'Every now and then an unfamiliar recording of the complete Beethoven piano sonatas challenges acknowledged preconceptions regarding interpretation, but recent recording by Dirk Herten goes a step or two  farther than that....

Gramophone - Rob Cowan

High praise indeed for Herten, but not undeserved. Herten’s reverent interpretation of the intricate material renders the original tunes nearly saccharine and pale in comparison. 

by Kiersten van Vliet

Annabelle Berthomé-Reynolds and Dirk Herten give a zestful account of Charles Ives’s Violin Sonatas. They dispatch this repertoire with both expressive character and sensitivity.
