The Singapore Business Times
"Capturing the true essence of Chopin, pianist Richard Dowling conveyed poetry in
the works. Here, clearly, is a pianist of high ideals as he approached every work with
utmost attention to detail in balance, phrasing and pedalling. More importantly, his
efficient technique was unfailingly musical and even the most daunting technical
passages were transformed into objects of beauty. Dowling had something personal to
say and impressed with impeccable control of colours and textures...he received a
standing ovation and left the audience craving for more at the end."
